Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!

Wearing my 1953 Hamilton turner. 10k pink gold. Tiny case. Manual wind (of course).

A watch my late grandfather owned and gave to my dad. Neither are watch guys. But I got this restored and it’s ticking well!

Where did you have it restored? It looks beautiful. I have the same watch from my grandfather and am planning to send it to RGM, but would love to know where you had yours done.
