1940s 9ct Gold Certina Watch

Since we’re on the subject of gold jewellery this week, I thought I’d share a photo of my 1940s 9ct gold Certina watch. An aside about this piece: Once, after I posted a picture of it on a popular vintage watch blog, a guy who was writing a book about vintage watches asked if he could use the picture in his book. Unfortunately, he sent the email to my Hotmail account, which I never check, so I didn’t see his request until months later. I missed my shot at the big time.
