A fun, cheap, and oddball vintage tangent today. R Gsell & Co. 1969 Moon Landing Watch. Need to dust it off but 17J Swiss movement inside. Been sitting 50 years...wound it up and running like a champ. Shades of Movado from a distance Rescued yesterday from remnants of a NASA employee estate headed for the bin.
A thread about a Vacheron & Constantin pocket watch made me go in search for mine. Another one I picked up 30 years ago, when I was routinely attending auctions. It needs service. Didn’t know it had two movements in it, huh?
Happy Halloween. Closest thing I had to a black and orange theme. I guess I now have a excuse for buying an orange strap and/or bezel in the next 12 months.
