One my dad found at a yard sale years ago. Kingston Watch Co. Datofix. Looks like they're fairly uncommon.

And I can't remember if I've posted these before, but one of these was my grandfather's, the other my great grandfather's.

It's really not too hard (I have a different one). You set the time and the day of the week by running the hands around. The three buttons then set the month, date and moon phase.

I bought this watch on ebay about six years ago. I think I paid about a hundred bucks for it. It runs great. I carry quite often. Thanks for your comment!

Nice BW Raymond. I think it might qualify as Railroad grade. Later the standards changed so the hands would have to be plain blued steel to make reading it easier---like the Seth Thomas.
Keep that one up. They cost a bit to have fixed if they are let go and not maintained. Trust me---I know. :p
