  1. I’m not usually one to leave comments, but ever since I came across this website many months ago, I’ve found myself coming back here every so often, perhaps regularly, to view these well-preserved pieces of history. Your parents’ writing were very pretty, and they seemed like a such sweet couple. Please don’t ever take this down.

    1. Martin, Sadly, I don’t think I will ever know as the guy wrote wrote me has not gotten back to me … I now think it was a scam.

  2. Hi,

    I am very sorry for this random message!

    My name is Justin, Australian by passport, currently living in Singapore.

    I wanted to randomly reach out as I am a collector of vintage watches and recently acquired a vintage watch.

    The watch has an engraving on the back that says ‘to bill, from Bernice’

    I did a ton of hunting and came to your website. I’d love to learn more about the watch and story.

    One reason I collect watches is because of the history that it holds. I would love to learn more and document some of the history behind it! Hopefully one day I’d love to write a book about watches and it’s history – particularly this one!

    Sorry if i got the completely wrong person.

    Looking forward to hearing back from you,

    Kind regards,
    Justin

    1. Justin, Thank you for pursuing information related to the watch. I emailed you … please send photos of the watch. I will try and verify the origin. Thanks, Lee
