A vintage 8 day wrist watch Sun, 19 August 2012 04:37 Go to previous message

Picked this one from my watchmaker last week. A very rare 8 day wrist watch in good working condition. This one's not a franken from Eastern Europe:) .The enamel dial has embedded mother of pearl floral designs. It was a technological marvel at the dawn of the 20th century & the ubiquitous "half-dial" adds to its beauty.
Some quick fotos.
