My Grandad's old watch...

[DaytonaMike]

Hello folks,

Was just wondering if there are any Jaeger experts out there? As the title, thought that maybe this should be listed seperately on house insurance, it was presented to him in 1968 for long service and never left his wrist 'til, well, time was up...

What do you think, it works, but runs heroically fast!

Mike.

Yes, saw that, do you have anything more to add?

Get it serviced?

[bigandclever]

No, just that the lot details section might point you in the right direction for movement reference and so on.

If its running fast then it is badly in need of a service. I would get that done before the movement is damaged.

Funny you should post this, had this one dropped in by a customer today to see if it can be saved:









Parts availability is sketchy and expensive, so do try to look after yours better than this one has been
