Panerai & Antiques

Here are some items my mother had around her house for the last 50+ years.
The chest is circa 1942 ( WWII), the watch I am not sure, and the Ship in the bottle was made by German prisoners where my grandfather was a guard during WWI
(ps My toes are circa 1963)

Great pics John. The pocket watch is nice also. I like the logo on the rubber. I'm guessing for the summer months it's the right one to wear.
