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.

It's my desk. An art deco corner desk. A little too small for everything I have on it, but I love it.

As long as we're adrift, did you knit that sweater in the picture with dads watch?
