[Discussion] What's the oldest watch you have? (alien.top)

What's the oldest watch you have? And why?

I sold a variety of Swiss and non-swiss brands for a long time when I worked as a jeweller. At the same time, I developed an interest in antique jewellery and watches.

So whether is cheap or expensive, working or not, 5 years old or 100+ years old, what's the oldest watch you own? Is it a sentimental piece or something you purchased because of its model?

Just hoping to find out about some more different watches out there!

I have my grandads old watch from the 70s but it's. Ano name brand with a gold case. It's not really part of my collection

The oldest watch in my collection is actually an armani fashion watch. As much as I would never normally bother with a fashion watch, my wife bought me this when I graduated from basic training and we had zero money so it means more to me sentmently. That would 2009.
