My grandfather (who I never met, back in Italy) was a watch collector. He died during the Nazi occupation of Italy and most of the valuable watches got sold and/or lost during the bombing of Milan, when their building was destroyed. My father did never care about watches. I have three watches that belonged to him. One is from 1923, one around the 30s and one of war time. Not too valuable, but priceless to me. One day my daughters will wear my watches....I hope. And maybe my grandfather's....
