My wife found at a garage sale a curious little piece, a vintage mechanical Timex. Still runs, a lttle fast though.
Cool vintage find there Bill!Your wife did good! (how much was it???...I've heard of some amazingly cheap finds).
Timex seems to have done a number of cool, mechanical watches in the past (from a brand that I typically only think of as providing quartz driven watches only).
She paid 10 cents for a ziploc bag of watches, this happened to be one of them.
She almost gave it to my 8 month old grandson to play with as a toy. I don't think the "Water Resistant" rating would have stood up to that drool!
