Found three old watches...

[page3]

I've been doing a bit of clearing up - and came across three old watches. Not sure if they will be of any interest to you lot, but thought I'd post in case anyone can tell me anything about them.

CASIO Quartz. This was my first ever watch. Must be early 80's. I'll need to replace the battery to see if it still works.




Molnija (I think!). Wound it, still working. Bought for me by my Brother when he was in Eastern Europe prior to the Wall coming down. Must be 20+ years ago.





Waltham. This one I'm most interested in. It was in my Grandfathers possessions and nobody else wanted it. I know nothing more about this one. Wound it, still works

My Dad bought two
