This specific category encompasses timepieces manufactured by the Elgin National Watch Company designed for women, featuring a case constructed from 14 karat white gold and possessing characteristics indicative of a past era. The term designates a watch that is both antique in nature and made with precious materials, typically reflecting design aesthetics prevalent during its production period.
Such items are valued for their intrinsic metal content, historical significance as artifacts of horological craftsmanship, and potential collectibility. The use of 14k white gold suggests a certain level of luxury and enduring quality. Their appeal often lies in the artistry and detail absent in more contemporary mass-produced watches, offering a tangible connection to the past and potentially serving as a unique fashion accessory or investment.
