TISSOT AND CROTON NIVADA GRENCHEN, PAIR OF STAINLESS STEEL 'TIME ONLY' WRISTWATCHES
This lot features a pair of highly attractive mechanical timepieces dating to circa 1950-1960s. Both watches feature Arabic numerals with stick hour markers on silver dials. The pair wonderfully complement each another, especially that one is fitted on a leather strap and the other on a stainless steel bracelet.
The Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation would like to thank @cozmopak and JJ Basil for their generous donations.
The Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation: Through great loss has come inspiration. At just 15 years old, Brian LaViolette’s life was claimed in a swimming accident, and on the day of his funeral, his family kept a promise to honor his name and memory by helping others. Founded in 1992, the Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation awards deserving college-bound students with scholarships to further their lives and education. Since then, the foundation is proud to have presented 1,160 scholarships to deserving individuals across the globe.
