The gentle tick of of a mechanical watch is a thing of beauty. It will never ever be matched by its electronic equivalent.
This is one of my mechanical watches and it comes with history. Open the back cover and you will find this inscribed inside...
'The Daimler Co. Ltd for twenty five years loyal and faithful service. 1913 - 1938. T.C. Gandy.'
I wonder who T.C. Gandy was. What job did he discharge so faithfully for a quarter of a century to earn this watch? What other simple pleasures brought joy to his life? I search in vain for answers.
