Elgin Shockmaster - Self-Winding - Hooded Lugs - Arrow Seconds - Circa 1950-1955

A charming mid-century automatic with all the right design touches: a warm, evenly aged cream dial, feuille hour and minute hands with original deep warm aged lume, and a distinctive arrow-tip sweep seconds hand, a style later echoed by Omega, giving the watch a lively and unique character. The sculptural hooded lugs tuck the strap under their bridges, so it wears compact and refined while standing apart from plain round-lug dress watches. Honest, warm patina across dial, hands, and markers completes the picture.
