Wearing my 1944 waltham type a11… nearly an 80 year old watch and it still tics like a charm. I added a black nato strap to it to give it more of a utilitarian tactical look. I still have the original canvas strap that was in it. Anyways this is my favorite time piece.
Ibforgot tobmention i havz extra parts for thede walthamd if you need acrylic crystal replacements…
Nice one! My wedding reception was in the Waltham museum of industry, which is right next-door to the old Waltham watch factory. They had a ton of pieces from there! I bought all my groomsmen vintage, Waltham watches, and got them fixed up as their groomsmen gifts.
I was able to visit waltham mass and was lucky there was a garage sale and a former employee was selling nos old vintage crystals feom all sorts of years and models… i have extra type a11 and ordnance crystals
