I think you will agree a most interesting timepiece! 8 Days "to boot!" Any ideas of history, date etc? Look forward to any responses. Roy, "So mote it be!" | |||

My guess is that Cecil Roy was a retailer. Most of the Goliath watches I have seen and owned were either French or Swiss. I owned one that was made by Omega and another that was stamped on the movement made in France | ||||
