No Rolex among these (unfortunately), although there might have been in different circumstances.
From my maternal grandfather and his father, respectively: ref. 2484 ref. 2507 From my paternal grandfather, by way of my father (he had originally given it to him in 1961, and then inherited it some 30 years ago): ref. 14389, cal. 268 From my father: The one he wore in college... The one my grandfather (his future FIL) gave to him (he didn't realize it was solid gold until I looked and told him): And one I wish he still had to give to me! I think it's a 5508.

I love looking through old family photos trying to see which watch brands my family was wearing back in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Seems Hamilton was a family favorite

If there might be a few casks of Speyside's finest involved, we may have a topic for discussion...
