I was going through a box of personal items from my father-in-law that I've had for the past eight years (where does time go?).
Lots of old coins, a couple of Ronson lighters (never used), two transistor radios (they still work) and this watch.
It wasn't working so I removed the back and of course found the battery compartment corroded.
As soon as I removed the battery the watch came to life due to the solar array.... yippee! I cleaned up the battery contacts and installed a new battery. All functions of the watch work as they should.
I tried finding any info about this brand watch but came up empty except for an ad from the Sharper Image from the late 70"s.
Has anyone heard of or possibly had one of these watches. Is it worth keeping?
