Wear it with pride. Keep box and papers.
Not too many of these around. |

Very nice, one of the few pieces without crown guards that I think looks fantastic.

Thanks everyone.... My uncle wore this every day.... Day in day out... No matter what! I always remember him wearing this even as a kid! I'm tempted to do the same, but I'm also tempted to wear for special occasions only and carry on with my £50 Pulsar as an everyday watch and not worry about scratching or damaging it. I want to wear it but want to preserve it too! Had it since June and so far worn it to 2 wedding receptions, and 3 meals out in restaurants for friends birthdays!

Nice watch and something to cherish. Sorry to hear about your uncle passing, but I do enjoy reading about family history behind time pieces.
