Half my collection is pocket watches. Lots of decorated case backs. At the risk of overdoing it, I’ll only show a few. Some embossed, some engraved, some are mine, and some are from my archives. The square one is an Omega from the mid-1920s, and was sold in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, in a jewellery store that my late father worked in, at the time.
What is that last watch with a well known name and crest on the back ?
Nothing less than the epitome of horological chic. On a more serious note, how could I pass it up? It has assumed an honored place in the political wing of my collection, right next to my Spiro T. Agnew watch.
