Retirement, pension and a gold watch...those were the days!

I recently had my grandfathers Accutron Tuning Fork watch overhauled. This is probably the first time since 1982 its been done. The process took 7 months which was not great but it seems parts and expertise to fix and maintain these is running thin nowadays.





I have my gold DD and love the look and feel of how gold quickly acclimates to the ambient temperature which increases comfort as a daily wearer.





Does anyone here know of any companies that give a Day-Date as a retirement gift or is corporate America too tight with their wallets nowadays? lol


I am lucky to be in 3% of Fortune 500 companies to offer a traditional pension like my grandpa but I highly doubt they'll give me a watch. Fingers crossed for when I am 62!
