You guys are great! Thanks for the info so far. I actually obtained it on auction from a very nice guy who owns a pawnshop and he said privacy forbids him to tell who pawned the watch. Much of the circumstantial evidence makes a fairly good case that Tom Watson Jr. of IBM fame either gave the watch or received it. I had one person say he probably gave it because Tom was used in the engraving rather than Thomas. It has been interesting so far trying to discover the provenance. The watch runs and I have a video of that, is it possible to post a video I made myself on this forum?
Thank you,
Bob Martz
