June Wildcard Find

Found in the street near my house.

A ladies stainless steel "Commando Chrono" watch from Wenger (Famous for Swiss Army Knives).

The photo from my cell phone sucks so I posted a similar watch from Wenger website. The one found has a black face and SS band obviously but is the same model. Retail value...$275.00

  • Wild card or "best jewelry"?
    (found with detector or was it an "eyeball" find?)

    was there an arm laying nearby?

    I could use a hand with some work.
  • Very nice Danny. I take it the band was still intact. The one I found at McAdam a while back was just like it came out of the store. Looks like that one is too. Strange.

    The band is basically intact with the exception of a deep gouge on the outside of the locking clasp. They crystal is worn but not deeply scratched. Looks like the watch may be a year old or so.

    Nice find!!

    Wouldn't be very helpful without the rest of the watch wearer......unless you wanted to slap your other employees around from a distance.
  • When I first saw it I thought maybe some pilot from the base may have dropped it. Could be.
