What makes the Chicago 506 unique: Today, were thrilled to present to you this stunning watch initially produced by the Elgin National Watch Company over a century ago — the Chicago 506. This antique pocket watch movement features a highly unique dial with a classic Mobil logo from 81 years before the company merged with Exxon. The front of the watch also features stylish black numerals with transparent drop shadows and blued steel solid diamond kite watch hands that look exceptional against its light background. We encased this sophisticated pocket watch within our powerful Sandblasted Titanium case and equipped it with a glimmering nickel-plated crown. On the watchs rear side, you can see its breathtaking 345-grade open-face movement with a Moseley regulator, Breguet hairspring, quick train, and going barrel. You can also view the pocket watchs remarkable gold-plated gears and 17 ruby and sapphire jewels throughout its ¾ plate. Finally, we topped this one-of-a-kind watch with our hand-crafted and comfortable Olive leather watch strap. The Elgin National Watch Company originally manufactured the Chicago 506s pocket watch in Elgin, Illinois, in 1918 — the same year that Congress passed the Standard Time Act — also called the Calder Act. The act was the first federal law that enforced standard time, and it also created daylight saving time.
