Tom BrownWatch Extract
Bought this bottle on ebay labeled Watch Extract Co. Waltham Mass.
Was amazed that just pouring a little out produced this nice 23 jewel Waltham watch. Still waiting for it to dry before I try to wind it.

Cecil McGeeHey Tom,I hope the wrinkles come out when it dries. Also,I'm not much on Walthams. Do they have any Elgin extract?

Tom BrownThe bottle of Watham was all I could find, it looks like it is drying well, you have to pour out the exact amount you want for the size of the watch you desire. I am trying to figure out how to pour it so it comes out with a wind indicator.
I never knew it was this easy to be a watchmaker!

Mitch MarkovitzI ruined one once by starching and ironing it.

Mary Ann ScottTom - you are so funny!

This is too much!

Best laugh I've had in a few days!
While you're at it, how about an E. Howard "K" in an original case?

Phillip SanchezTom, in another life you must have been a used car salesman or a member of congess. Every one should know by now that the brand you have there will only make Walthams. You can't pull that stuff on our members, we are too sophisticated.

Tom BrownPhil, no need for name calling!!
Well, I am out of business, I accidentally left the lid off the bottle & apparently if air gets in it randomly forms into watch parts. So this morning I found a bottle full of parts.
Sorry Larry & Mary Ann no watches for you.
