  💎 About This Timepiece
  
  Born in the heart of the American Art Deco movement, this Elgin Model 667 reflects the bold geometry of its era—clean lines, sharp symmetry, and a sense of quiet confidence. These watches were chosen by men who moved with purpose: the commuter reading the morning paper on a rattling elevated train… the young professional signing deals in pencil… the nightclub regular slipping through a side door just as the trumpets hit the chorus.
  
  A true Deco companion.

  This example has endured with remarkable dignity—an honest piece of Americana that still keeps time with the soft confidence and rhythm of its era.
