That is, someone who is interested in watches or clocks, especially railroad timepieces. Here's a picture I took of my three, only one may be vintage, the other two are Wal-mart pieces. The 3rd is a Pierre Jacquard 17 jewel pocketwatch, missing the adjustment thumbwheel.




I just like the fact that they have trains on them. I have a 4th pocketwatch I just bought ( from wal-mart) to replace my wrist-watch that broke, so I'm actually using this one. Just a plain PW. Don't wanna scratch up the Train ones. I think their batteries are dead anyway.

Just thought I'd post to see if anyone else has a railroad-themed watch of any kind, or timepiece, that they'd like to share.

Those are kinda cool looking I know I have one of those Lionel wrist watches kickin' around somewhere. If I can find it I'll post a pic.

I don't collect them, but I was given a Russian watch made for the Turkish market and given to their rail workers...
