Elgin 21-jewel M8 Veritas - c. 1899
Elgin's flagship railroad watch was their 18-size Veritas, which is Latin for "truth". It was introduced in 1899 and spanned some twelve years, marking the debut of the motor barrel in that size. This Grade 239 is from the very first run and looks to be an entirely original example.
