Back before I started collecting pocket watches, I was collecting wrist watches. I always wore a watch(Still do) to work but when I got in a purchase I would also wear it.Thus 2 watches. One day in the break room my manager asked me why 2 watches? I replied "Well let me tell you and pointing to my left wrist I said this watch is fast and I use it to start my breaks,then pointing to the right wrist,I said this one is slow and I stop my breaks with it." She never asked me again but I did explain that I was only checking the timing on one of them.
I never knew the correct time!

Rob...absolutely!

It's almost as good as having back up for your back up for your back up!!!!

Ka-boom!

Is this where the saying of "too much time on your hands " came from ?

Collin you've blown it. Never again can you say
"I didn't have the time"

Excellent find. I think the Hamilton 950 was on of the most beautiful watches made in the USA. I found an early (c1908) 950 a few years ago in a Duluth antique shop, for a song. One of my mentors in the 1970s, who was a Soo Line watch inspector, commented that 23 jewel watches (except Waltham) weren't encountered that often as 23 jewels were more than what was required. By 1977 the main requirement for a pocket watch was a white hairspring and a 24 hour dial.
