It's a long story, spanning more than 7 decades.. So, long story short, it belonged to a grand uncle in France, who passed away in a car crash in the 60's, was given to my dad, who passed away early 90's. My dad's best friend helped to sell the watch as my mum needed money. In the mid 90's, I married, and that friend turned out with that watch as wedding gift. Last year, i jad a rough year healthwise, and I decided to pass it to my daughter, to be able to see her enjoy it...
