What’s the oldest watch you have? And why?

I sold a variety of Swiss and non-swiss brands for a long time when I worked as a jeweller. At the same time, I developed an interest in antique jewellery and watches.

So whether is cheap or expensive, working or not, 5 years old or 100+ years old, what’s the oldest watch you own? Is it a sentimental piece or something you purchased because of its model?

Just hoping to find out about some more different watches out there!

    1948 Bulova Douglas.

    It was my first and one of my only dabbles into vintage. I’ve always liked rectangle cases, just never owned one before.

    It’s fine. It feels really fragile though and I don’t wear it that much.
