Not into Elgins, but somehow the 21 Jewel engraving does not appear original.

Jeff and Jon

Thank you so much for a quick response.

I was just dying to know.

This one is a common 11J(?) jeweler. Please do yourself a favor and learn to count jewels! Too many of the BIG (caps) watch experts have yet to learn this important issue.
