Itīs a old one this time a Oyster Imperial with a small second
hand made in 1945.

The watch was in bad shape when I got my hands on it
and here is how it looks.

That was just more response than I have expect and
you all are too nice and great with your comments.

I can see you love this kind of stuff so I will document
next time again when I get myself a bad looking watch.

Thank you all for your comments, with this response you
have made my weekend.

Thanks again.

Jocke
