Rare 24k Gold Bar Elgin Watch

 

Rare Elgin USA Automatic .999.9 24K Gold Bar Watch

The Elgin USA Automatic .999.9 24K Gold Bar Watch is an unusual piece, but there is an important distinction to make when evaluating one: Elgin made many watches with gold cases, while a watch described as a “.999.9 24K gold bar” may refer to a specific gold-bar-style case or a later commemorative/novelty watch rather than a conventional vintage Elgin solid-gold wristwatch.
