Thanks to the op for this thread. I lost my parents a few years ago, I had them in my life for many more years than the op but still very difficult. I posted the following on another thread...
My first watch ever as I was leaving home in 1964 being sent to military school for the next 6 years. To help soften the blow, My late father bought me this watch and it no doubt became very important to me as it was the one thing I could have while spending those years in uniform. Thankfully I kept it in good shape all these years!
