Guest Rick Research Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 What a There must have been a small personalized NAMED document in the upper lid's pouch-- that gone missing? Too bad-- this is a real beauty and must have been to somebody who might have been traceable in the civil service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosenberg Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 (edited) Thanks,yeah too bad the pouch was empty.A good idea,I actually thought there might have been some sort of cleaning cloth in it.The watch came with a lot of books one of them had the recipients name in it,as it was also a gift from the Saargruben.Cheers Edited November 21, 2005 by Rosenberg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus H Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Could the pouch have been for a chain perhaps ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scowen Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Man that's sweet I think that industrial long service awards are very underated.Well done, & thanks for showing us. CheersDon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosenberg Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 Thanks for the blessings.I totally agree with Don on these items being underrated.The idea of a missing chain seems actually most reasonable to me,that?s why I haven?t thought of it at all A chain should be found easily...Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scowen Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I thought I'd post my lignite mining 25yr service stickpin here as well rather than start a fresh thread. Hope that you don't mind This one came in a little book style caseCheersDon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
