·On a happy Friday note, your second watch suggestion is spot on and better than mine. You win! 😀
The mystery of Doctor Beverly Crushers watch solved.... very classy and stylish.

Love these photos. Probably a mistake where she was wearing her personal watch. I love the idea that either in the 24th century of STTNG watch styles have reverted to the mid 20th OR the doctor on the starship just works day-to-day wearing a 500 year old watch. Sort of like carrying a 16th century Spanish wheellock for self defense, or owning a Ming vase that you throw flowers in regularly.
A bit of thread drift but Kirk did have a Flintlock collection in his Earth home... and I bet in Naked time the crew wished that Sulu had not had a fencing sword collection.... watches would have been a safer bet :0)
I think compared to a phaser I would rather have a Flintlock when they stop working (at least you can batter someone or knock a nail in)

Nice tower pistol! Is it an orginal or a repro?
