South Bend Watch Company Model 2 1910 Fancy Dial w/ Fancy Hands

Studebaker 2 ways

In Arizona, just off Route 66 in Petrified Forest National Park, is a 1932 Studebaker.

Since the Studebakers were heavily vested in the South Bend Watch Company, I had to stop and record some history of my own.

It felt a bit like a family reunion. We ate ham, potato salad and talked about the past — just the three of us.

I’ve only owned this watch for a month but it’s already been apart of some great memories.

What I wouldn’t give to know more about the rest of its life.

Maybe it’s been on Route 66 before — perhaps even in a Studebaker.
