  16. Great link dav thanks found out a few things I didn’t know about them. This is 1966 so guess that’s why I was told it’s Rare maybe it was a early model of the new style
  17. Thanks dav Yeah it is a 806, French Lip
  18. Thanks vet, I don’t normally wear them because I don’t want to scratch any of them. Normally wear a 70s Divers watch that is a bit rough. Fancy a change
  19. Thanks Jen
  20. Thanks newfld , I thought capodimonte was a Italian company that makes majolica and pottery, I’ve had a few old pieces in the past
  21. Thanks newfld, I was trying to think of the stone I had seen that looked like this and you have said it. I think your right. It’s small and plain looking so never really gave it much attention. But wo...

  23. Thanks kera I wasn’t sure what the material was thought it was enamel, I think it has 587 , I wasn’t sure at the time if it was real gold so spent ages cleaning it then rub the gold away, so I know it...
  24. Thanks Bronmar & newfld, it’s rare that I buy items like this, shame I can’t make the marks out but has full English set from what I can make out.
  25. Thanks kera are they mainly Turkish or the whole region
  26. Thanks elanski who would have thought that they would still be doing shows 30 years later
  27. Thanks leesa, I have never looked at obsidian before, even though I thought it was onyx you could be right
  28. Thanks leesa I don’t know of that stone so will read up on it & see . Great help
  29. Thanks John, I will listen to it
  30. Thanks Jen I thought it was a good one, I’ve actually never seen anyone wearing a ring like this
  31. Thanks Dragon , it’s the bad light making it look like that I think.
  32. I’ve seen a stone a bit like this in a Belle Epoque ring
  33. I saw a ring with a very similar stone to this last night described as a yellow sapphire 20ct but it was set in 18ct gold not silver
  34. Thanks dav
  35. Thanks kera I just replied
  36. Thanks kera great help, I thought they was interesting as they date from 1945 , thought maybe it was a local event but couldn’t find anything online, bought them as scrap silver, 27.4 g
  37. I think I saw a sapphire like this the other day. This would look great in a ring and I’m thinking about getting one made with it or maybe another
  38. Thanks dav & newfld. Loved the white version but then saw this in a auction and got it.
  39. I was looking at antique rings last night and saw a similar stone to this in the sapphire section, literally the same colour
  40. Thanks dav mp great help with great links with good information. Wow saw a working movement for £62, so 1959 i guess this watch maybe 1960ish
  41. Oh thanks mp great link with lots of information on it too, great help,

  44. Thanks vynil
  45. 7” length 5” width
  46. Thanks Jen yeah I was surprised when I found it again, I think it might be Art Deco, it doesn’t look anything like the Italian one’s so wondering if it’s English
  47. Thanks elanski I think it’s stainless steel, the strap is half missing but guessing it might work with a new battery
  48. Lol kerra you found it, great tune too . I wondered what was screwed onto the end and also thought it looked bent.
  49. Thanks newfld, it’s a great picture
