Original from early 1970’s - circa 1972 election I believe. If memory serves me correctly, part of a Kodak film promotion. Free watch if you mailed in a certain number of film UPC labels. Its pretty low grade all the way around as you can imagine, but the message is what's important! .
Very important, but since this is an apolitical forum I’ll try and refrain from expressing my views

This forum may well be the last corner of the globe to have been undiscovered by political opinion.
Fingers crossed...

Looks great - and the watch isn’t bad either
Thank you for the watch!

Honestly, the Belgian coastline is not the most beautiful one, but Ostende and Knokke you can find some nice places 😀

Beau bracelet... Sur mesure je suppose ? 😀

It's beginning to grow on me....this 25 jewel automatic was a "freebie" included in an auction lot I purchase for one particular watch....I know nothing about the "Candino" brand but the chunky late-'60s early-'70s case is "something different"....it's powered by an ETA 2472 that has been adjusted in six position....arrived on a JB Champion bracelet...trying it out today on a leather strap....comfortable and accurate.

Wearing my circa 1907 Omega pocket watch today. Wearing it on a lanyard that I designed and made from full-grain cowhide. The blue leather goes nicely with the blued hands I think 😀

Oui merci. Bespoke double wrap strap made by Atelier Jean Rousseau, I supplied the rivets and they worked with me to make it removable despite the fixed lugs. It was a tough job and in the end I think it looks so good I don’t see any reason to remove the strap.
