Lovely story, pictures, niece, watch and strap of course 👍
Guess I gave up the watch for a good cause, will now need to try a double wrap strap on mine —it’s about the only watch on which I don’t have one at this stage 😜
I like the story very much, not often the case that young people appreciate such old watches. My daughter only looks at smartwatches, fitnesstrackers and 🙄 when a new old arrival comes to town, when I'm happy with that new purchase, sitting on the sofa and winding it up and look at it the whole evening. So I hope she will change her mind one day and perhaps will wear my old Longines when I'm no more able to do it.
This is about the most adorable story ever. @LesXL is so thoughtful and sweet, plus the supporting cast @Syrte, @imfagent449 and others on the forum. I think you all may have hooked one from the next generation.
Uncle, is that you?? 😁 Thank you for sharing the entirety of this journey. It was really neat to go through it with you and see the final outcome. 👍
ou la la, pas de concurrence hein? 🤦
This must be my reward for letting you have this baby, another one showed up — thanks to a lovely lady collector who knows I have a bit of hankering for those 👍
That's lovely! I really like the patina on that one 😀
Curious to see where was that piece sold. I notice a very colour conservative strap 😀) ... but matches perfectly the dial !
