Wurth Watches

wastintime · 04-21-2008, 07:01 PM

Hey everyone,
This is a really stupid post, but I'm at VIR instructing at an audi club event. I somehow lost the keys to my rental car, I'm really hoping they fell out of my driving suit pocket into my student's car.

Anyway, there was a raffle after the first day, and they "auctioned" off things no one won. I bought, for no other reason than my watch broke a few days ago, a Wurth Watch in this collector tin. Just for the hell of it I thought i'd see how much they actually sell for. I can't find one mention of it on the internet anywhere, except another one was apparently given away by a university at some mechanical unveiling ceremony.

I'm just curious if anyone knows where to find anything about them.

Thanks.

Pics? Mechanical or quartz? New or vintage? Country of origin? Jeweled movement? Sapphire crystal? Screw-down crown?

Need more info...

I'll try to take a pic when I get home, but no idea on anything else, I mean, I literally couldn't find any info on it at all. Someone said they thought it was a timex. New, and it's not terribly expensive obviously, eh, I don't care... lol, I needed a watch, and it went to charity... of course, I'm a charity case myself.... ah the life of a race car driver...

Wurth gave those away as pro-mos, they don't make watches, they make hardware & chemicals for shop use.

hey danny...can you pose your watches in say..a tail pipe or 911 engine?

Lol, I know what wurth is, I've used most of their products, and I realized they didn't make the watch, just didn't know if anyone knew anything about them.

Lol, no race car driver's don't wear those, race car drivers are too broke to waste money on things like watches.
