Marked 35 year case
Usually you see 10, 15, 20 or even 25 year cases but this is the first time I can remember seeing one marked 35 year. Case is in poor shape now and on a watch I am listing in a lot but wondered how many other 35 year cases were out there. Marking looks factory to me.

Rob:

It's the first 35 year YGF case trademark I've ever seen, I do have one 30 year made by the Montréal Watch Case Co.

Robert I have owned 1 case marked 30 years by a company that was apparently a small maker and another one marked 30 years ex. but I have never seen a 35 year case. Nice find.

I've never seen a 35-year case or the Ideal Watch Case Co. either.

I've never seen one either, but it was a great marketing ploy, wasnt it?

"Everyone else's cases are only warranteed for 30 years.....ours are good 5 years longer!"
