I was surfing the online garage sales a few hours ago, and spotted one close to me. I asked the seller if she had any watches. She sends me a few pics, and I see that the tips are sterling. I asked her to please hold them for me, and that I'm on my way. When I get there, she surprises me by telling me that the Movado is 14kt white gold. Unfortunately, one of the lugs was broken. Lovely little watch. I believe the outer piece of the crystal is gold as well. Would the lug be hard to solder back? I have it. Thank you. As always, your thoughts and comments are always appreciated.
The sterling piece with the Turquoise is marked HN or NH, depending on how you hold it. Does anyone recognize those marks? Thank you.

Very nice workmanship on the silver - I'm sure the lug can be reattached, jeweler perhaps?

I would think it would be they cut rings to resize then weld them back I bet a good jeweler could nice job on the watch... I love yard sales lots of treasures didnt think about online sales.

Definitely worth fixing. We all know how difficult it is to come across solid gold watches. Maybe try Movado, who knows they may fix it for free.

A couple of nice pieces, I'm sure they can be fixed; probably by you! :occasion14:
