Like my Mom's engagement gift, a 1941 "51" with Sterling Silver cap, aluminum jewels and plunger?
1941 was the first year for the "51" and this is a First Quarter 1941 "51". I remember Mom putting the cap on her finger so my little brother could chew on it when he was teething. The Silver feels cold and comforting on a child's sore gums. They say I teethed on it as well but since the Eldest Son is perfect I'm sure they simply got that story wrong.
When I was born Mom sent Dad a first quarter 1943 Parker Vac. He was in North Africa at the time. Both of the watches also belonged to my father.
