      Wow I wonder if the value of this one would be the same I have never seen or heard of one of these before
    3. TeresaD TeresaD, 12 years ago
      And I was thinking it was a toy watch
    4. kerry10456 kerry10456, 12 years ago
      By no means Teresa, this is different, but very collectable. Thanks for sharing.
    5. kerry10456 kerry10456, 12 years ago
      And forgot to add, the band on yours is original, VERY nice piece!!!!!!
    6. TeresaD TeresaD, 12 years ago
      Ok Take your word for it It was only 8 Quarters I couldn't pass that up but I didnt think it had much of a value
    7. kerry10456 kerry10456, 12 years ago

    8. TeresaD TeresaD, 12 years ago
      LOL, I will hang on to it for now I like the Odd and Usual looking things
    9. kerry10456 kerry10456, 12 years ago
      Good call...... There's another one of these listed for sale for $110. so your $2.00 was money well spent.Thanks again for your story and sharing this.

      I took this watch with me the other day to show someone and I must have had ten people around me that wanted it I could have had myself a small little auction there but didn't.

      Hang on to it, it is now, but wait a few more years and you'll be suprised on it's value. Best Regards, Kerry

      I have one Teresa! And it is very unusual. Do me a favor and find something else to give to your grandson? It is collectable. And with a watch like this the price will keep going up. Congratulations on a great find! I have been offered anywhere from 150 to 250. Which makes me feel like I can get more. My watch is the same watch you have posted. Like Kerry said. Hold on to it for a while?

      Thanks everyone I did take in to one place to have it looked at and he said why do you wast your money on worthless things it's just a toy watch and worth nothing needless to say we were having arguing match and as I was on the way out the door I said you're the one that knows nothing and you might want to do some research you may learn something he had me so upset you don't go into a place of business and have someone try to be little you.... Thank's again.

      i have the same watch as yours. my grandfather gave it to me when i was 8 years old. he said that i should wear it when i grow up. today am 20 years old and i found the watch in my cabinet and i search the model in the internet and i found that`s it a rare and vintage now a day.
    16. TeresaD TeresaD, 11 years ago
      Keep it and pass it on down. It's different, That's for sure

      The late Chadwick Boseman wears this watch in Draft Day. I have taken some screen grabs from the film and linked to this thread.
