This listing offers a used Elgin Swiss Sonic men’s wristwatch, featuring a 36mm rectangular case, silver dial, and gold-tone finish. Built around a quartz movement, this unit is offered strictly for parts and as a donor piece for restoration projects. The current watch does not run, and a new battery will not restore functionality, making it ideal for someone looking to salvage authentic components rather than purchase a working timepiece.

• Used, with visible scratches on the case and the crystal.
• The movement is nonfunctional; battery replacement will not restore operation.
• Sold as a parts/donor item—great for salvaging components to repair or restore another Elgin Swiss Sonic watch.
• Includes authentic elements such as the 36mm gold-tone case and silver dial with date window.
