    Sunday Boot Sale finds

    First one of the season for me here in Essex and a couple of pick ups on a quite day . Lovely late 40s ,early 50s Winsor watch . Had to come home and google this one as not much info available and a brand I had never seen before . Looks to be a off shoot trademark of Mondia watch company , still making watches today as they were purchased by Zenith in the 70s.

    Liked the case ( in not bad condition ) and unusual in a larger size , applied numerals with a nice patina dial . I also picked up a Smiths 7 jewel .

    Very nice Rob.

    Couple of great finds.

    Boot sales haven't started in the fields around here yet - can't wait!
    Cheers,

    Nice finds. No boot sales around here yet.
    Best Regards - Peter

    I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.

    Thanks for the nice comments, there was a lot of talk today about the Coronavirus and next weeks Goverment announcement about Public gatherings. So dont know if there will be anymore for the foreseeable future. Glad I got in early
