I did NOT find this watch in Grandpa's sock drawer (disclaimer)

My SO gave it to me!

Short explanation; My SO helped care for a close friend who recently passed away. She was helping the departed ladies brother clean out the apartment, the woman was a bit of a hoarder. Among many boxes and bags were several boxes of old jewelry. My SO asked the brother if he wanted any of the jewelry, he didn't. She noticed the watch and again asked if he wanted...
