20 Most Recent Elgin AU13 Antique Pocket Watch Questions & Answers

Westclox

Well Melissa, you have about a hundred parts or more in the watch. If anyone of them is dirty, broken or whatever your watch will not run. You need to go talk with a watchmaker (not a jeweler) about your watch. If your watch hasn't been "overhauled" in the last ten years then that is most likely what is indicated. Watch oils and greases evaporate or turn to a scummy mess which may be the problem. Or you may have a broken balance staff. Or you may have rust and dirt built up to the point the watch can't overcome it.

Is the elgin fg9919 water proof / resistant and if so to what depth?

I don't know and it hardly matters as firstly such descriptions only apply to new watches and secondly, if it has ever had the case opened it should be considered not waterproof unless it has been fitted with new seals and pressure tested, something few repairers have the equipment for...

Have ladies Elgin watch w/ tiny face, EX801-007 5Y30, made after 1968. Uses tiny 376 battery. # 376 the watch battery has, is much smaller than new 376 battery. Who sells battery to fit this watch?

Might be a silly answer, but have you tried the thee Elgin site? Also try a Dollar store. They have some very small batteries that I use for my older watches. :-)

The finish on my Elgin watch/bracelet set is turning and has gone from silver to very badly tarnished on the bracelet. My husband gave it to me for Christmas 2015.

Take a look at https://www.rd.com/home/cleaning-organizing/how-to-clean-silver/ if it's real silver then this should give you a few ideas on what you can do.
