Hello from Northern Virginia, U.S.A.

I'm definitely no expert on watches, but I've inherited a few nice ones. I've got a Gucci, an Omega, a couple of Rolexes and some old pocket watches.

I am particularly curious about a wind-up rolex that I have. I would post a picture, but my camera battery died when I just tried to use it. Tomorrow.

I am joining this forum in hopes that someone can tell me what I have. I'm not trying to sell anything (they belonged to my father), just want to know more about these fascinating little pieces.

I'll have some pics up soon.

Welcome Frankie. Hopefully you'll become an active member as well when you find out what you possess. Your collection will grow dangerously on it's own if you stick around for any length of time.

All right here it is. I have no idea what I'm looking at. It does not seem to have any markings on it, except for the clasp, which I do not think is original. The original crystal must have been damaged somehow because the one on it right now is plastic.

It is a manual winding watch.
