Who among us doesn’t owe a debt of gratitude to heirs when they choose to send a family watch on its way? This one was a presentation in 1977, to an employee on his 25th year with the company. He passed away about 15 years ago. The heirs spent about 12 years deciding whether to keep it, or let it go. I jumped on it like a duck on a June bug, even though it needed work. Right up my alley! I paid a lot more for the replacement crystal than I did for the watch!
