[QUOTE="BMRT, post: 669996, member: 10892"]Friends, I found a watch I really loved and purchased it as a gift to give for a dear friend. It’s an 1896 Waltham sterling piece. I don’t know much about it but it was beautiful. Unfortunately the postal service seems to have had its way with it. Now it has arrived with the glass shattered and the hands busted out. Is this something that can be repaired? The watch was sold in working condition and came with its little key. However after whatever it was that happened to it I’ve no idea if it’s working anymore. Can anyone recommend someone who I can send it to in the United States? I really don’t want to scrap it. Any advice would be appreciated if this sort of thing is even worth repairing.[ATTACH=full]185281[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]185282[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]185283[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]185284[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
