heck, when i asked how water-resistant (not water-proof!) an old Elgin of mine was, the response from the watchmaker was: "heck, that ain't even FOG proof!" it's still beautiful, and like most of my old watches, it still works wonderfully.

cheers!

A 1938 Elgin has a snap-back case, no they are NOT sealed, cannot be worn near water, nor in fact if you sweat a lot. A pain, but they are lovely watches.
