I’ve added a table of Elgin serial numbers to the main Elgin Watches site. This table should be used for a rough estimate only of the estimated production date. You can use it to find the approximate age of your Elgin watch. A good thing to keep in mind is that the first Elgin watch was serial number 101, a B.W. Raymond movement. I think at some point, the Elgin Watch Company stopped using serial numbers but that was after more than 55,000,000 serial numbers had been used. The 50-millionth watch was a Lord Elgin.
The Elgin Watch Company produced more fine watches in its 100 year history than any other American watch manufacturer.
