Oh, if I was a rich man...

Apologies for the late response, been caught up w stuff.
Prince the pocketwatches were gifted to my uncle and he has given them to me. I have been trying to dig up the history myself however I don't think I will ever find out, the stories died with the owner, which is a real shame.
All I know is they belonged to some Indian statesman named Salar Jung who had a great collection of watches and clocks, some from the reign of Louis XV, Louis XVI, and Napoleon.

Yes that is Waltham, you have a good eye.
If I am able to get a hold of details, I'll let you know.

Cylon, I haven't had time to take high-res photos, I will get a better shot when I post some vintage Pateks, Rados & Omegas.
Btw if you're interested in the vintage JLC's, let me know, those are for sale.

So Mughal then? Very interesting! I thought some of the writing looked like Farsi/Urdu. Looking forward to seeing the high res pics!

same Moinet in black... beautiful!

Sorry but that is one ooglay watch

reminds me also of some of the rectangular APs

My first Rolex came in today.

Rolex Air King, c. 1987. Fully serviced/documented, with all original things (even the hang-tags). It was a safe queen for 20+ years. I think it's fantastic. I was afraid it would be too small, but I think it looks great on my 7.5" wrist. Very happy!

Congrats man, and the jubilee bracelet is in great condition too!

congrats very nice.

a while back someone asked for pics of my JLC i was talking about. here she is, my baby.

crapy phone pics, but thats all i got.

i have the leather band, but it was getting ruined when i wore it in the summer at work with no AC. i think ill put it back on now that im not working there anymore.

Thank you both! The way the dial and bracelet catch and reflect light is not something I have seen with my other watches.

Stitchy, that's a sweet JLC. Timeless classic.
