    Came across this watch when looking for old photos in my parents house. Anyone see this before?

    Drawing a blank with me I'm afraid. :o Though stylistically I'd reckon mid 1970's.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Wound it up but it's not working. I might eBay it for the laugh.

    Wait and see what this one makes first, don't get too excited though, if you could take some good clear photos of the movement, and sell that on it's own it might actually do better.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    I think it unlikely that the two Atlanta watches are from the same manaufacturer. The difference in movement quality, the application of the name on the dial and the genericness of the name makes me think they aren't the same. Unfortunately for the OP, I suspect that his is the lower quality of the two.

    Edit. Mikrolisk has 21 manufacturers with Atlantic in the name.
