Model A wrist watch
Has anyone ever seen a watch like this? It's an A radiator with ford emblem and is battery powered. I've never seen one and google turns up minimal info. I'm just wondering where it came from originally. Thanks

Re: Model A wrist watch
If you can post a pic of the back of the watch I may be able to. Help identify it...is there anything on the back?

Re: Model A wrist watch
Miyota movements are made by Citizen in Japan and is a very popular movement used by many watch manufacturers, being that it is a Quartz movement with battery it is not going to be that old....it is cool though...

Re: Model A wrist watch
It was offered in the MAFCA newsletter probably 20 years ago.
It came in a nice round black box. And yes I have one |

Re: Model A wrist watch
Marcus. I will attempt to find her name from a friend that bought the bow tie one. I did not buy because I figured with the battery it was not very old and I thought it was made up for the show. I do know her name was Sylvia as I joked with her that she looked like my sister in law whose name is Sylvia. Regards, Wayne
