Interesting Ebay Description.
You just got to have your family Jewels holding your Gears Together, otherwise you could be in serious trouble.
Quote. THIS WATCH HAS 23 JEWELS YES 23 JEWELS COMES IN ITS OWN WOODEN BOX WITH ALL CERTIFICATES THIS IS NOT A CHEAP WATCH WHEN YOU HAVE 23 JEWELS THE JEWELS HOLD ALL THE GEARS TOGETHER. I remember the jewel wars in the 60s-70s watches boasting 100 jewels plus.Only 17 in the movement the rest just useless decoration.A bit like toubillions in wrist watches today,over priced.And in reality of little use in wrist watches,other than the watchmaker can make them.More expensive,bigger, or larger is not always better,although the marketeers would like you to believe so.
