train tracks crossed on the way to the beach, seaside train on the drive up to the tide pools, my grandfather's pocket watches.
My are my father's beautiful pocket watches that belonged to his father and grandfather. I am absolutely in love with them! They fill that void of a missing jewelry heirloom in my life! The Apollo pocket watch on the right was my grandfather's and the numbers and dials are painted in radium, which I find fascinating. The one on the left is a 14t gold filled Waltham watch that was my great grandfather's. There are two more in the shop and I can't wait to see how they turn out!
OOh I love the Apollo one with the radium numbers! It's very retro futuristic!!
