·Keeping up my trend of waiting ages after an arrival to actually purchase it, here's my latest: an Enicar Sherpa Graph Mk. III. This one took some patience to find, but was well worth the wait

··His Holiness Puer SurdusWaltham model 1899 pocket watch. Grade 620, circa 1902.
I was given this pocket watch last year from the owner of the local mom & pop jewelry shop. The watch was hardly working and also had irreparably damaged hands. The store owner said it would have cost more to fix it than the value of the watch. Many moons later, with a bundle of tlc, a new mainspring, new crystal and new hands, the watch is now working very well in all positions and looks terrific.

·Here are my most recent finds; the Accutron needs a service / new movement, I’ll probably clean the Consul up as best as I can and offer it to my daughter, plus I’m really chuffed with the DS 😁. Considering how old they are they’re in reasonable nick and are keeping good time. It’s nice to add a 12, 3, 6, 9 watch to my small collection, and all up these set me back about $AU 50 😉

·I came across these two today at a local estate sale for less than $400
The Omega has a 490 movement. The Cartier has an ETA 2512 movement.
I looked but can't find anything about the Cartier (Googling "Cartier with a two-toned dial" yielded no results)
I'm also curious as to what the difference is between 18K Gold and 18K Electroplated Gold is.
If anyone has any thoughts or information on either of these please let me know.
Thank you

I have wondered what it is - there's no real identifying maker's mark (unlike that jammy sod, @Darobs and his car boot find), though it does have some kind of scratched on numerals that are akin to a service mark on a watch - haven't seen that before.
