    Hello friendly savants, 

    My father recently passed away left me 2 watches from the 1950's. 

    I would like your help identifying them, If possible.

    Any information would help

    Many thanks in advance.

    Your father has left you two very fine Caliber 89s!

    I do not know these well enough to tell you the reference numbers, but that should be engraved on the inside of the caseback.

    The first watch has the incorrect crown, and it does not fit the case very well. So beware that moisture and water ingress could occur here.

    I recommend you get these watches serviced with minimum intervention.

    I think it was made in 1989.
