My mother passed away this year. My sister and I had the sad task of sorting through her belongings, deciding who wanted to keep what. I've ended up with a gold phob watch that was amongst the listed items, my sister keeping some jewelry of similar value. I though you guys would like to see some shots I took of this British made watch (H Benson and Sons Ltd)    It's staying with me for the rest of my life. God rest my mum's soul, she will be missed. |

Hi Martyn,
I so sorry to hear of your loss. At least you can take heart that she's in a better place.
What a beautifull watch that will always hold a special place in your heart.

Martyn, please accept my condolences.
That is a beautiful watch Martyn. I love that dial. (and typically I am not a fan of anything with Arabic numerals)
