Cleaned up an old mechanical watch that belonged to my great uncle.
The leather strap, attached to fixed bars, had perished, so I cut it off and put it on a nato strap.
It is hand wound and keeps good time. There is an inscription on the reverse which details that it was awarded by British Rail for 35 years service in 1975.

Skx has been worn every day since 2011 and only the usual light scratches on the polished steel edges - glass is still mint, somehow.
