Vintage Watch Pendant

My latest vintage-inspired fashion statement!



My grandmother gave me some of her old watches; one of them, she said, was a graduation present from her father. She graduated in 1940, so it's pretty exciting to think that the watch, which was missing a band, was probably made in 1939 or 1940. Of course, it no longer works, but it is so beautiful...What to do?

I slipped a chain through the loop at the top of the watch face, where the band was once attached. And now...It's a pendant!



A fashionable way to wear beautiful vintage watches you may find at antique malls.

  1. Oh, Tia! That clock is so cute. By the way, I bought a wrist clock recently. I'm worried that I will loose it because I've lost about 5 clocks before. But that clock is unique! Unfortunate it doesn't work :(
