Been away from the forum for a few days due to a health scare with the new grandson, all sorted now though. 👍

Glad to hear all is good .

Having a Ball today!

Dug out some of my nicer pocket watches, many of which I haven’t had in hand for a long time. Got this at an auction over 30 years ago. Can’t have paid more than maybe $250 back then

I tried to be picky back then. Movements counted for more than cases.

Here’s a Waltham I love, from the same auction house.
