Clepsydra's Incredible Article on Vintage Portuguese watches and their hallmarks...

The live presentation was fabulous and followed up by this journal article is the cherry on the cake and a lovely reward for your scholarly work, tenacity and perseverence. Bravo and Congratulations.

Well done Tony, you never told me that you are now up with the horological gods ;-)
BTW I see no link to the PDF ???

Best Regards

Thanks Jimmy. Once one enters Olympia one is bound to modesty and wait for others to recognize one's greatness. ;-)

That's what I love...A modest man of few words, but what he says has substance.
I bow low to you sir, and thank you kindly for the link ;-)

Truly insightful article! What an intriguing bit of horological history! Thanks for the education. I certainly hope that none of the hallmarks was ever polished out due to ignorance on these watches.

I was traveling on business when this post came up, and almost missed it!

A fantastic research document and very interesting read.

Antonio, some (not all) your transgressions are forgiven! Many thanks for the hard work, tiredness tenacity in getting to the bottom of it, and most of all for sharing the knowledge.

Thank you my friend.

Thanks Mark. Very kind.
I almost missed your comment. What do o have to do to atone for my pending transgressions? :-)

...just cross his palms with pieces of eight and all will be forgiven ;-)
