Alan32 1,496 Posted May 7 Being a member of the Alliance of British Watch and Clock Makers, I felt I should put some of my money where my mouth is. Sherwood Watches have sadly closed, but the watches will live on. The packaging was impressive even having plastic corner protectors. but they seem to have cut costs on the cleaning cloth 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan32 1,496 Posted May 8 As we commemorate the ending of the war in Europe , please take a moment to remember the thousands of allied troops ,sailors and airmen of the forgotten Armies, and their families in the far east who still had four months of blood ,sweat and fear to live through before the true end of the war. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
