Before & after
A metal tool flew out of my hand and crashed into my watch box full of 12 watches. It struck this vintage orient tristar. Why couldn’t it hit the invicta pro diver. Watch is still running and has no issues until now. Very upsetting was the only vintage watch I own. Wasn’t expensive but I really like it. Got it from eBay and it came all the way from Egypt. Had for about 3 years 🤦🏾 😭

Ooh, that’s a bummer. Odd stubby hands look like they’re from a smaller watch.

I always thought the same about the hands. Bought it when I first started collecting watches so I was a rookie back then and didn’t know what I was doing.
Ouch! Well, I’m glad it was your watch instead of a body part. Silver linings and such. Still, that’s a painful hit.
Oh! Yeah that hurts. A different, but fantatsic Orient. Hang in the there Jamil1983. She's stil a beaut
It can be repaired. Crystals aren't very expensive! Even a new bezel if needed.
