Hi, Got this watch from my Grandfather and have had it for many years now. It works fine and winds when its moved. I lost the little knob to set the time, but i do remember it working the hands. I must say that it looks better in person than the pics. Back says: water resistant/shock resistant/non magnitic/14k gold/M&T Inside says: Matheny Tissot 664242 17 Jewel nonadjusted     | ||

Seems like a nice heavy watch, ball park value is $400-500 once you fix the winder. | ||

Thanks so much for the advise. Any Idea of the year of this watch? Also, whats a ball park for winder repair... and should i take it to a local watch shop to have them clean it up, maybe get some of the scratches out of it... or just keep it as is? | ||

Actually conme to think of it, you might have more value with the price of gold as it is. You should weigh it, you never know. If the stem is still in there, putting a new crown is not a big deal. maybe < $30, if you need the stem it's more complicated. You may polish of you want, I don't think it has any influence over value of this one. |
