J W Benson
I thought I had posted this before, but I cant find it,J.W.BENSON WATCH COMPANY HISTORY:J.W.Bensons started up as a partnership between Samuel Suckley Benson and James William Benson.About 1840,they were selling watches under the name SS & JW Benson,Cornhill,London.In Jan 1855,the partnership was dissolved and from 1855 to 1891 (according to R Good) or 1897 (according to NAWCC supplement 20) the company traded as J.W.Benson and the firm moved to Ludgate Hill,after which they became a limited liability company.They held royal warrants during the 2nd half of the 19th century,starting in 1876,for Queen Victoria,the Prince of Wales,the King of Siam and the King of Denmark.About this time J.W.Benson also had premises Royal Exchange and Bond Street,but it seems that neither of these addresses appeared on the dials of their watches.During 1889,J.W.Benson went on a buying spree,acquiring,Hunt & Roskell of London & Manchester,Silversmiths and Jewellers,and Sir John Bennett of Cheaps

Baseball Watches
so i am freakin' being waved to home by the third base coach and i expect the play at the plate to be an explosion (hopefully no broken bones) so my question, which watch would hold up best? g-shock? a watch built to look like an old time watch but with a picture of ty cobb on the dial (for inspiration as ty cobb was brutal on the base paths)? a $5 quartz one can get at k-mart or walmart (figuring an explosion at home plate would trash any watch). maybe that 60mm paneraithink about what would be going on in the mind of the catcher seeing that monster coming toward home. any thoughts?

Timepiece Grave Yard ( Eulogy for your Watch, have at it )
My first Watch is a Klaus Kobec Quartz Chronograph( what quartz watch is not a chrono hehehe) that lost both its case connect pins (whatever that's called) and a mean chip on the Mineral Glass. Battery finally died in its third go around and I will not recessitate anymore." though you were a good little Soldier with your Japanese Quartz chugging along reminding me of my tardiness and important dates, thank you for your devoted service and may your reincarnation be into a Swiss".
