been after one of these for a while, finally got one! comes with full service and 1 year written gurantee, but will of course be going to my watchmaker for a once over, sorry only the one picture as the rest of the sellers were protected will post more when it arrives
I don't think it's a 760. The 760 and 761 both had the DuraBalance symbol of a lower case d and b back to back this has the DuraPower symbol of a d an p back to back. I als believe that all 760's were Lord Elgin's and along with the 761's were prominently marked American Made. I've posted a picture of a 761.
Here's a link into the grade database on the Elgin Watch Collectors site http://www.midwestcs.com/cgi-bin/elgin_grades The reason there's not a lot of information is because it's a Swiss movement. You havea very desirable fancy lugs case, and it is a nice watch, but a 760 is in a different category.
well i have to confess i brought it on looks, for everyday wear, and won at auction on the bay. $70 serviced and gaurenteed, and including postage, well good value i thought just the excise duty to pay, wont find anything looking that good on the high street
