Description: I am going to be selling off some of my late father's wrist watches that he acquired over the years. He was a certified watchmaker for over 60 years. He graduated from Bowman Technical School, Lancaster, PA in 1962 and any of the work listed was done by him. PLEASE READ EVERYTHING IN THIS LISTING SO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. All of the watches will show wear, scratches and other characteristics of a vintage watch that was used for its purpose many years ago. It is not recommended that you use a watch like this as an everyday watch or that you try to work on the movement unless you have watchmaking knowledge. I will be transparent and take many pictures and show any wear and blemishes, please look at them closely so you know what you are getting. Serious buyers PLEASE, make sure this is a watch that you really want and are serious about purchasing. I do not wish to have it shipped back to have to resell and ship again, the less time it spends in delivery the better. In 2009 this watch was cleaned, serviced, and fitted with an period correct crystal. Then it was put in a display case only taken out occasionally to be wound. This is a beautiful watch in very good condition that winds up, runs and keeps time. It has been tested prior to this listing.
