Guest shutter_bug Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 My grandfather gave me this watch. I have had it twenty-six years and have done nothing, in way of repairs, to it. It still keeps perfect time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still keeps perfect time. Nice vintage clean look. Ball Watch Co are making fine watches.

Richard Tracy Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Brings back memories,... The Old flex-i-bands.. which were so very comfortable back in the day.. I wish they would make an updated version of them,... the bands we have today, know nothing about forming to the shape of any individual wrist, and keeping a watch, exactly where you wanted it to sit,... like these funny looking bands of the past... I know that hair could be a problem, but the gentle grip of them, was nice feeling... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Grandfather watches are always priceless. Here's mine (Choisi Montreux). It's very rare model. The factory offered to fix and service it without a charge and wanted to take pics of it for their watch museum. Haven't send it yet.

groobash Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 That's quite [censored]ish. I remember when gold nugget style was so hip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
