She said, "Can I take it and get it appraised?"
So she went to a clock maker.
He was going to give her $150 for it, and she brought it to her dad, who likes interesting stuff.
And I said, "Can I buy it?"
And she said, "Yeah."
So I paid her $150, she gave it to the original owner.
APPRAISER: So this is a Hamilton Model 22.
It's 21 jewels.
Very, very good quality.
Made for the World War II effort.
American government was really nervous after World War I that we didn't have a chrono built in this country that could supply them in the event of World War II.
So they put a contract out to the American watch companies.
And Hamilton was late to the party, but they actually won the contract.
Temperature compensating positions, six positions.
So a very accurate clock made to be moved.
In today's market, this would have a value of somewhere around $850.
Not a bad investment.
GUEST: Not a bad investment.
Thank you, Daughter.
