Hands-down the most coveted and rare Mickey Mouse watch of all time, a "True 1933 Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Chicago World's Fair Wristwatch", the first Mickey watch ever made! This is the very watch that sold for a record-breaking $6,100 at Christies Auction House about 6 years ago. I even have the original box and actual warranty/instruction pamphlet and it runs perfectly. The leather strap is still as soft as a well-used leather jacket, the case is still nearly perfect and as you can see, zero yellowing or crazing (tiny cracks) on the paper face. Easily my rarest, best Mickey watch ever. Keep your eye out for this little beauty, I've seen just 2 in "similar" condition in the last 2 years.
My Disneyana pride and joy.

I have, what I believe is an early 1933 Mickey Mouse watch. It has the Art-Deco bezel and the wire lug case and is in mint condition. It only has half of the original leather band however, the buckle side. The band has the metal bracket to attach to the wire lug and the Mickey charm. What I need is the other half of the band, with the bracket and charm. Can anyone help? Mousetime80
