What’s the oldest watch you have? And why?

I sold a variety of Swiss and non-swiss brands for a long time when I worked as a jeweller. At the same time, I developed an interest in antique jewellery and watches.

So whether is cheap or expensive, working or not, 5 years old or 100+ years old, what’s the oldest watch you own? Is it a sentimental piece or something you purchased because of its model?

Just hoping to find out about some more different watches out there!

    Mine is also a GP. It’s an original with an alarm function. It has a regular crown then a secondary winder to set and wind the alarm. I think it was nicknamed the cricket due to the sound the alarm makes. It was my dad’s.
