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!
This quartz seiko from 1979 with a rather subtle linen dial. Recently bought it from Japan for 30$.

I have a similar one I just repaired
Can you help a fella out and give me some directions for getting vintage Seiko form Japan?
The linens are such a gorgeous look, softens it just enough I think
