Vintage 1970s Swiss ELGIN Manual Wind Chunky UFO Steel Case Rare Gray Dial RUNS READ. This is a large watch for the era in which it was produced. Heavy stainless steel case and bracelet in great shape. Don't see dials in this gray color very often either. The watch winds, sets, and runs strong but SLOW.
IT WILL NEED TO BE SERVICED IN ORDER TO RUN ACCURATELY. If you want to wear it for a few hours to work or dinner, etc, the loss of time is not really noticeable. It starts to add up over a day or two though.Inscribed on the caseback - "12-25-76 With Love, Susie". Comes on a NOS steel bracelet that will fit up to a 7.5 inch wrist. Photos taken on my 7.5 inch wrist for your reference.
The photos are the most important part of the description. They were taken in natural light at 2.5x magnification and have been UNEDITED. What you see is what you get. The'Item Specifics' section of this listing provides more details as well. When in doubt, refer to photos.
While I always do my best to provide the most accurate description, I'm not an expert on every movement, model, or brand - just a guy that loves watches. Feel free to contact me with any questions or clarifications. I'm happy to give more background info about a specific piece if I have it.
