This isn't one that is in the five to six figure range. I looked it up again after posting, and it is worth about $4500 now. When I got it, years ago, it was worth about $2000
Grant, great shot of the old tender. That mustard yellow isn't a color I see much.

So yours is a quartz watch?

Swiss movement, manual wind. I think what brings the value down during this decade was the plexiglass ... well, glass.

That's an outstanding photo, MFI.

It is just an old watch photo. I tend to see them all up this close. I really enjoy working on the antiques.
