I picked up this Waltham watch for $1.50. It was missing the Crystal and the crown stem had broken and the hands were bent.

I didn't have a stem in my inventory so I just placed an order for one on eBay. I'll pop it in and it should be a decent watch. Here is the after picture.

Great find! You definitely have the expertise in watches!
 

Be careful with how much you put into this... Unless you plan on wearing it then get whatever it needs!! Very cool looking Waltham nonetheless!
 

I .99 auction them. Just got $32 for the top one.
