What jewelry would you treat yourself to?

Watches are a disease.

I say this as someone afflicted with the illness.

I have what I think is a rare 1951 juvenia Arithmo watch with an unusual face numbering scheme. I think only 251 were made that year and I want to sell it.

Any advice?

Thanks!

So pretty! And inspirational too. I’d love to do that.

How do you get the stones into the metal?

There are stones that they sell for this (none are expensive types)- the temp I use is 1640 degrees F with about a 2.5 hour heating in stages. There is such a thing as using an oven or a torch flame but I just went straight to the kiln. You can build a thin ring around a stone to hold one in when it is not in the kiln- but I have not been able to perfect that.

Take a look at Chrono 24 and see if you can find recent sales to determine it’s value.

I have. Sadly I haven’t seen any with this specific watch face.
