Yes, to tell the time.

New to the site, this is my first post and apt, as I've just bought a new, well, old watch.

Sicura Memostar, with a mechanical alarm movement. The movement was Adolf Schild. Been after one for a while and this one popped up on Ebay UK, over the weekend. Seller made me an offer and as he was only in Liverpool, I went and picked it up. Quick buff, Polywatch on the plexiglass and it's a winner. Needs a proper clean and some sanding and a better strap - thinking a 70s Rally style one.
