Pocket Watch enthusiasts are encouraged to post a picture and a short description of one or some of their favorite watches. I would like to add that the watches posted do not necessarily have to be rare or expensive, the idea is just to have some fun and maybe learn a little bit more about other pocket watches not necessarily in your collecting realm. lc Moderator Louis Christina 37 188 10-31-2005 11:30 AM wristy Watch Out!
