How a Watch Works

I thought that you might enjoy this short film, produced in 1949, by the Hamilton Watch Company.

That is an awesome video. I stumbled upon it a few years ago and still refer to it when I need a refresher course:)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Yes David, I thought the same. Simple and to the point with a nice vintage feel.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Boy this takes me back I don’t know how many members are old enough to remember nurses and starched uniforms and caps, slide rules, double breasted men’s suits with Wide lapels and typewriters. I remember them and in fact had to take a class using the slide rule in high school.
