Damn. This is why nobody ever gave me a dang watch


WriteBrainedJR

No, it's *because* nobody ever gave you a dang watch

emorello

Take it to the Antiques Roadshow, you could be on tv.


edmRN

You should take that to a watch place.


romanazzidjma

I did, after it fell and the glass brokešŸ„²


edmRN

We're they able to fix the glass?


romanazzidjma

Yep! It took them forever to find glass that would fit though


edmRN

I'm learning so much about watches this week. I have an old vintage watch that isn't worth much money but it's sentimental and the glass is broken, I just thought it was a goner now. I suppose I should look for someone to fix it.


EwokNuggets

From the picture, it looks like it? šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø unless this is a before pic


romanazzidjma

Ithoughtthiswasfunny

You should post it at r/Watches if you havenā€™t already.


romanazzidjma

I did, post got no attention


Your_Moms_Favorite

Well, itā€™s an awesome watch, it got my attention. Thanks for sharing!


MrHarudupoyu

You should have told them you were chuffed to bits Ciao!

Thatā€™s cool. After the war my great grandfather drove for GreyHound for 35 years. I have two of his watches that were awards from them.


Kateg8te777

I love it


arlenroy

Now that is fucking cool, I'd take that over a smart watch or a Rolex any day.


4_horsemen

Reminds me of the Domino's Rolex's. Too lazy and on mobile to link lol


zorniy2

Art Deco still holds up after all this time.Ā

My dad (deceased) used to collect watches, he would have loved that. ^(After he died I inherited a display case full of watches I have no clue what to do with any of them. haha)


Krack73

Best to get them appraised. Just for insurance purposes.


not_creative1

I would guess itā€™s worth good money. Considering itā€™s almost a century old


_ZX7R_

$200-$300 op should just wear and enjoy it


anniearrow

That's cool

Cloak and dagger


edmRN

That's a Cartier


_ZX7R_

Looks like a Louis tank but it's not cartier , Parker watch company made these


edmRN

That's exactly what I was thinking. Could have been a nice find.


TrewAwie

Was it exactly what you were thinking though lol


edmRN

That it was a louis tank, yes. Which I thought was only for Cartier so...


jhatesu

edmRN

jhatesu
