This past week we observed Veteran's Day here in the U.S. To further honor those who served we thought we would look back at a story deep in our archives. We're talking 2011, a full decade ago. This is a story about a watch – but it's one that really gets to the core of just how important a timepiece can be.
In the story, we're introduced to Charles Woehrl, a veteran of WWII and a POW who purchased a Patek Philippe watch during the war. Jason Heaton examines the connection between a man and his watch, and recounts a decades-long story that we won't spoil here. Enjoy this one on your lazy Sunday.
