Adam, Thank you for the information. I wanted to put this one up on the IHC auction site, but didn't know if it was original or not. Thanks again for taking the time to post the information. Tom | ||||

Haven't posted anything on here for awhile and ran across this while digging around today. The paper is original Bradley artwork for the Cookie Monster Moving head wrist watch. Done is pastels and very nice. I put an image of the finished production model over top the artwork. Adam | ||||

That is really neat to see Adam. I think the minor changes made between the design drawing and the finished product were good ones. Cookie Monster was played by the same guy who played Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch I believe. I once sold a Swiss oversize "coach"watch to a gal who worked at the CTW. It was apparently presented to Big Bird to mark some occasion. My 15 mins. of fame!(well, maybe five of it anyway) -Cort | ||||

Cort, Cool story. I agree about the changes. It looks less cluttered. I am still looking for the Big Bird nodding head and the Mickey & Pluto if you ever come across them. I finally found the Mickey & Minnie Disco nodding head last year. Adam | ||||

Hi All, I've recently turned up this 'Tom and Jerry' Swiss watch, complete with box and guarantee sheet. The watch and strap (band?) appears to have been bought and never used. Were these fairly common? Regards John | ||||

John, Neat watch! Sorry for the delay in responding. I have been on the road a lot recently. Although not common, they are not rare either. I don't have my information on these at the moment, but if I recall correctly, they were sold mostly over-seas. I have 4 of them, all different and all come from England. They changed the colors on the dials. I will try to find my information and let you know a little more if at all possible. If you are interested in selling, let me know a price. I dont think I have one with a white dial. Adam | ||||

Hi Adam, Delay ......... gawd,if that's a delay, you must have dust devils swirling behind you all day .... mmmbeepbeeep I will be disposing of it, as all my wristie and other unwanted stuff is being turfed out ...... bills to pay Would be interested in some history on it, like who licensed which company where to produce and sell what etc ..... and take care of warranty issues? That seemed to be by N&M Advertising Ltd, London, but who did the repairs? The maker's name on the movement is: 'Gisiger Greder Son' - ever heard of them? Couldn't put a price on the watch if my life depended on it, I leave that to the collectors John | ||||

John, My mistake. Been so busy and in a hurry lately, I was looking at the date that you registered January 07, 2006 and was thinking that it was posted a couple weeks ago. I still haven't registered that it is 2007 Now I see that it was just posted. I will see what i can find and let you know, Adam | ||||
