What watch do you wear?

My Sister, who is 7yrs. older than me, and my niece, are all that’s left. I have a first cousin with two son’s that could take it. I should make it known to them!

I did some research on how to open this watch, and found the serial number stamped right beneath the face plate. Then, I looked up info based on that number. Grampa was only 10yrs. old when the watch was manufactured, so I’m guessing it was handed down to him from his Dad(my Great Grampa) :thinking: Anyway, it’s 131yrs. old!

Try buying anything today, that’ll last through 4 generations.

Yes, for sure, SD! I’ve had it locked up since receiving it, and occasionally unwrap it just to have a look. Something like a watch, I’m guessing was a luxury item for an otherwise simple way of living(running a farm) that my grandparents lead.

New birthday present from the wife and kiddo’s.
I don’t usually wear a watch but I have always wanted a Swiss made watch.

Me too it’s because of this topic that I even asked for one. Like I said I haven’t worn a watch in years. Then seeing all the amazing watches everyone else has, it got me thinking. So when I was asked what I wanted for my birthday I asked and the kiddos chipped in to get it for me.
