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!

Great granny's minature manual wound wrist watch from 1920s. Brand is Henri Sandoz & Fills. My great grandfather went on a tour to Singapore during that time he bought this for her.
