Wow, Simon. You are something else. I have limited knowledge on pocket watches and all I know is that Waltham is good and really reliable. My grandfather gave me one a long time ago but  had to give it back because i was afraid i would wreck it. It even had a gold chain and all.

Kudos on a distinctive collectionyourock.gif. I can't say wear them in good healthsubtlelaugh.gif but I can say "pocket them in good healthsubtlelaugh.gif

Buddy, I presume you've taken to wearing a vest every day and placing your treasures in the appropriate pocket?? Very cool, Simon! :dude:

Thank you for the kind comments.
However, I do wear them but not with a vest.

I carefully place one of them in the inner pocket
of my suit.


I'll be sending close-up pics detailing each movement,
from the collection...stay tuned.

The soonest that I'll post the new images will be
a day or two. Unfortunately, I had moved to a
new house on Friday.
