Watches

[limey]

I wear my Dad's gold watch from his workplace. It's a (now vintage) Garrard automatic (self-winding), and inscribed on the back. Thanks for reminding me, it only does 31 day months so I have to crank the days forward myself.

When that was in for a service recently I wore a rather more flamboyant Soviet watch I bought long ago on my travels. I had to wind it every day (and crank the days away at the end of the month, too).

I like them both very much.
And as I think you can see they're large, and I wear my watch on my left wrist like I was taught.
