An elderly lady friend of mine has given me watches that either her husband had when he passed away, that she inherited when her father passed away, or were her son's before he passed away from COVID. She wanted me to get re-started on collecting watches once more.

NOTE: sorry for the poor quality of the photos. It is the best I can do tonight.

NOTE 2: You can see more Omega quartz watches on chrono24

Vostok, interesting MoP Alpha, and 2 watches I really don't care about....

Yes, the 2nd and 3rd are real. Omega made quartz watches in the early 70s. The Rolex came from London in 1916 when her father went off to war. I sent it to the manufacturer and they confirmed it is real.

I'm sorry for her mental losses, but I'm glad she felt comfortable sharing this tribe with someone who will enjoy them.

Good for you for being her friend.
