Inherited 2 from my Grandfather, but don't k\now much about either one.

Know of a good repair shop to take them to? I'd like to get them fixed up so I can give to my boys.

Wife gave me a battery powered pocket watch right after we were married, could not wear a wrist watch because it would be in my way when working around heavy equipment, so started to carry the pocket watch and every day the thing would gain an hour. If I left it on the dresser all day it would keep good time, so decided to get a wind up pocket watch, bought an older one on ebay. Carried it a few days and the same thing happened, would gain time, so took it in and had it checked and cleaned, still gained an hour a day if carried on my person but would not gain time if left on dresser all day, finally decided had too much electric energy to carry a watch, haven't carried one in about 25 years. Always loved them old pocket watches though.
