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 regularly wear a 1973 Seiko Advan. It's a little rough around the edges, but it has a very nice feel and unique look that works smart or casual. I particularly love the faceted crystal and wish it was more common on modern watches.
