Re: you have come to the right place . . .

: First, Please forgive me for not knowing how to use your forum yet,
: but felt I should post anyway, even if I'm doing this all wrong.
: Thank you for the link to the wonderful Heuer's in the forum, they
: are really nice. So clean and new looking. I think I only have
: one of those, and the movement, dial, and case are mint, however
: the paper label on the back is messy, and the crystal isn't as
: mint as the other parts. I will take photos and send them to
: you. Only 7 jewels, and the number on the movement is 7700.

: I do have photos of the watch I was talking about before, It's the
: one I mentioned in my first message, however it's a regular or
: standard Pocket Watch, and not a timer, like the first one
: mentioned in this post. It has a dial marked Patent Chronograph,
: a pretty nice, and complicated movement, that has the Ed. Heuer
: & Co. Trade Mark on it, with Patent also marked on the
: plates. The serial number is on the dial side, and it's marked
: 46144.

: I believe it's an early watch because of the early Trade Mark.
: Which is a lion, sitting on top of what looks like the world,
: with "sun rays" around the head of the lion. It's hard
: to make out on the movement, and also in the picture from the
: Trademark book, which I'm going to send you a copy of.

: I have never seen another watch like this one in all my years of
: collecting. NOT ONE!

: Well, that's about it, thank you for the quick reply.

: Sheila

: PS The trademark is listed in Roy Ehrhardt's "Trade Marks,
: Watch cases, Pocket Watches, precious stones, and Diamonds"
: I will send the photos later when I have both ready. Thank you
: for offering to post them for me.
: Bless,
: Sheila

Well, I have finally sent the pictures. I gave up on getting them on the net, and pneumonia had me in bed for two days. I hope you can post them for everyone to see, and maybe give me some information on them.
One is a very old Ed. Heuer, the other a newer old Heuer stop watch?
Am I posting this correctly?
