My Grandfather and great grandfather were both watch repairmen. As well, they both built clocks. A lot of history. I was fortunate to receive most of the old and old old tools for watch repair and although I have not a clue, I find myself tooling around with the many gadgets and certainly find them interesting. I also inherited a number of pocket watches along with thousands of parts....Most of the pocket watches came from my great great grandfather mostly watches that were never picked up from the clients. My grandfather collected an assortment of wrist watches. My favorite is the Sea Dweller 1970. I probably shouldn't wear the watch but can't help myself. The weight and size makes it irresistible. Love reading the history of this particular watch as it adds to the intrigue....
