A tale of 2 watches
My grandfather recently passed away, leaving with me these two watches, because he knew that I have a fascination with them. I don't really know the full history of both of them, but one is a Seiko quartz watch from 1989 that he earned by working for AT&T selling phone and Internet line in Oklahoma. He earned it for being inducted into the achivers club, which I'm not too familiar with, but I believe that is for the top sellers in the nation. The Guess watch is a fashion watch from the 1990s (I know what we all think about fashion watches), but it means something to me. I hope to continue their lives by my adventures up in Alaska.

They look great! Very classy. Wear them in good health 🍻
My sincere condolences to you and your family, bud. Those are precious and priceless heirlooms. No need to apologize for any of them. They are very classy and are a testament to who your grandfather is and was. Wear them with great honor and pride.
What quartz movement does the Seiko have? It looks similar to the V700

I own a Guess fashion watch from the 1980's but it does not have the history yours does! Wear them with pride.
