Abra Watch Swiss made
:confused: I have a heirloom Abra watch and was wondering if anyone knows anything about them. I know the serial # on the watch is 1279291
It has American Standard 25 Years.
It is swiss made with semi presious jewel movement (jewels) inside but I do not know anything else about the watch. It was my grandmother’s watch, she died before I was born & I am hitting 60. Any information about this watch would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
