"Ford" Engraved Date Just
Hey everyone
I came across this watch the other day, just wanted to see if anyone has seen one before. Im new to collecting and the forum, this may not be a vintage piece either. Hope to get some info on it either way. Thank you |

Nice looking 1601. It was probably a sale contest prize back in the day. Someone had to move a bunch of 72 Fords to earn that. :) I wouldn't question whether real of not, without provenance it adds little or nothing to value.
That's vintage Rolex, a nice old watch with a tale to tell. :) |

Thanks for the info RC. Since I couldn't see the serial I was unsure what year it was.
So unless it has a story no more value than the next 72 datejust? Would be interesting to talk with the owner and see what the story is. Hopefully I can get a hold of him. I do like the Ford blue dial :) |

Have to check the sr# for the year, I just pulled that out of the ether. :) Even with the story it isn't going to make that much difference, not like it was a real Tiffany. It's just a nice looking watch with a little twist.
If you get serious have them pull the caseback and check for corrosion. EDIT: As Don says, Ford guys would love it! :) |
