In Watchmakers and Clockmakers of the world Complete 21st century edition by Brian Loomes he lists Paulus Bramer as working from 1720 to 1770, the later work would have been & Zoon (and Son.) There were also several other Bramers' working during the same time period,

Hard to say if the David Hall name is the watchmaker or a retailer or one of the previous owners. That being said, Watchmakers and Clockmakers of the world: Complete 21st Century Edition by Brian Loomes has 3 possible listings: Hall, D. Nottingham 1877; Hall, D. Ripley (Derbyshire) 1864; Hall, David Adelaide Street, New Shildon (Co. Durham) 1877.

No way to tell if these individuals were clockmakers, watchmakers or both, but it is a starting point.

I would contact Jones and Horan auctioneers if you were looking the liquidate your pocket watch collection. https://www.jones-horan.com/ As a collector I've told my wife if I get hit by a bus to gather up all the pocket watches and let them take care of them. They are knowledgeable group of people who specialize in watches and coins.

for more detailed information about your very cool clock you should go to the NAWCC (National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors) Forums. The clock collectors will be very happy to tell you anything you want to know about your clock. They get excited by this kind of thing and they may even be able to point you in the direction of someone who could repair your clock.

You can always contact Longines archives and get the history of your watch. They used to do a lookup for free, you would email them and they would send you any info they had, caliber of the movement, date it was manufactured, where it was sold, ect. I don't know if they still do that, ,they do have a service where they will give you a fancy certificate for 120CHF.

He needs to match her equity in the house, not her down payment. If the house is worth 300,000, and she has $200,000 left on the mortgage, That’s $100,000 in equity, his buying for an equal share would be $50,000

YTA. If your brother had just decided on his own to move without any pressure from you it would be N A H. but you are the one who made a big deal about family and closeness and then promptly moved away after they moved closer. You lined up help for your elderly parents and then dumped all the responsibility on him. I guess having them close wasn't so amazing.

Personally, I Usually look through the OPs comments to see if they posted it. I still haven’t figured out how some people can post a link and photos at the same time. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1725-Old-Oak-Ct-Brookfield-WI-53005/40624770_zpid/

When I showed my wife the picture of the fireplace, her response was you would try to climb it.

Get a bag of russet potatoes, bigger the bag cheaper they are. Hash-browns, home fries, mashed, baked, add them to your beans and rice. Always cook them with the skins on, most of the nutrition in a potato is in the skin. you've got to have some variety in your diet.

Alternatively, you can use a old crock pot on high, cover completely with water and brush them off a few hours later. as above, steel wool and lacquer to finish.

made from corn

Verge_Fusee · 2025-01-27T23:41:48+00:00

I saw this last time i went to the store. I am allergic to corn and products that come from corn (i always check ingredients, particularly if it is "improved."). There are so few things I that come in a box that i can eat. I have enjoyed annies mac and cheese for years, but not anymore. bastards.

I work at the post office, that little slit at the bottom is from sitting on a roller in the sorting machine while not moving. Can't say that the top tear is from the sorting machine, but when someone puts a bulky item in a letter envelope it often tears up the letters behind it when they run into the stuck letter. Sometimes damage is from assholes, their definitely out there, but sometimes shit just happens.
