I have several old pocket watches from the late 1800s early 1900s from family collections. But of the watches that are worn, I have my great grandfather’s 1952 Patek Philippe Calatrava (there is a bit of moisture damage on the face, but have elected to not have it cleaned, i have been told it will hurt the value). It is a bit small for my wrist so my wife wears it on occasion. I also have my grandfather’s late 60s Omega Seamaster Cosmic that is in my regular rotation. Unfortunately when I was given the Omega when I was 16, it started an expensive obsession.
