Have you guys seen this? It's the World's oldest watch, Peter Henlein's Pomander Watch from 1505. Which was actually rediscovered in 1987 at a London Flea Market by a watch makers apprentice in a box of unique items. It was sold multiple times because it was thought to be a forgery, but now has been confirmed as the real deal through documention of Mr Henlein's work, dating of the copper, gold plating time period, and also different initialing, and signatures within the watch.
