- steve047 - 11-05-2008 We went down and went through Dad's safety deposit box the other day and found some more treasures...His old Railroad watches...here are 3 of them 1 is still at the jeweler - macallan2 - 11-05-2008 Beautiful pieces Steve!  I really love those old pocket watches.  You can get some really nice display cases for those.  What a nice legacy. - stogiedad.1 - 11-05-2008 Looks like the one on the left is an early maybe Hamilton that if not mistaken is a 26 jewel. The other two look like Elgins of about the same calibur. ALL of tese watches are very pricie if they were to be bought from a watch shop, if you could find them. KEEP them and DON'T let them out for just anyone to handle. These are in REALLY GOOD condition. Do you have any ideas as to what year that they were produced? That Hamilton looks kind of like the one that a neighbor had before he died that had a lifetime warrenty on everything, including the crystal. NICE STUFF!!! - Jimmie the Mum - 11-06-2008 Very nice Steve. Enjoy them.. - Skipper the cigar aFISHinodo - 11-06-2008 very very nice. A cool thing to have for a memory. - madurodave - 11-06-2008 those are beautiful, brother.  - BuddhaBill - 11-06-2008 Those are beautiful steve .My dad has dealy in antique pocket watched for years and up until a few  years ago had a shop in arkansas . Treasure them and just put them awayand take them out to look at ....Leaving them out displayed just invites them to be stolen and they are irreplaceable. - Jimmie the Mum - 11-06-2008 I don't think Steve would mine if we added to this thread. Thanks Steve for the memories: Here's my pocket watch, going on 31 years: Here's my dad's watch, going on 65 years: And of course what would a collection be without Betty Boop: - davidwys - 11-06-2008 how old are they?  they are really cool and im sure relatively priceless - Djaric - 11-07-2008 Beautiful!
