Grandad's Gold Watch

Grandad's Gold Watch
This watch belonged to my Grandad. It was presented to him when he retired from his job as a Marine Engineer in 1962 after 25 years loyal service. It's seen a bit of wear and tear over the years, but it still works and keeps good time. As it's a "wind up" watch I only wear it occasionally, just to keep the movement going.

Special K, Tanja - Loughcrew, Diane Putnam, Jean Paul Capdeville and 20 other people have particularly liked this photo

Thanks for your kind words Diane. Yes, he was very proud of his work. He would have been heartbroken to see how UK shipbuilding has been run down over the years :-(
