I've got thousands of watched but no Patek Philippes. All of my watches put together could not pay for one Patek.

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?

[Michael]

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

Now THAT is just art!

Thanks Michael.

Agreed.

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.
