Oma's watch.

by Theresa
(Rochester, MN)

Pocket/wrist watch

Pocket/wrist watch

It is a pocket watch with a wrist band.
My mother-in-law received it from her mother-in-law who is from Holland. I received the watch about 10 years ago and am looking for identification.

There are markings on the wrist band, but not on the watch. The markings read "ALPAKA" and "KJAG"

If anyone can give me information, I would appreciate it.

My father is Dutch and I have the same watch, except it is missing the little chain. I would love to know more about it. My Dad is 74 and it may have belonged to his grandfather, so it may be quite old. If you find anything out please let us know.

Hi,
I'm from Holland and I have the same wrist band.
It belonged to my grandpa's mum.

I have the same questions you do.
I believe Alpaka is a sort of silver. not sure.


Good luck!

by: theresa

I was looking at the watch this morning and noticed a tab in the back. I decided to open it. I was totally surprised! It has a few more markings and words.

An arrow and under it 0.800 inclosed in a rectangle.

The engraving says, "1re Qualtie Cylindre 10(or 70) Rubis", then the numbers 1053 with the number 3(under the 1053).
