Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for March 01, 2023

My pocket watch is a Gotham. No, it’s not from Bruce Wayne’s city.

Everything that Rolex aspires to be, with more style

If it’s really a Patek Philippe, it’s worth more than a car! Not the sort of heirloom to trust to a teenage boy!

Google Ads listed five PP wristwatches for sale for $14K, $29K, $229,950, $499,950, and $3.4M USED.

Patek Philippe SA is a Swiss luxury watch and clock manufacturer, located in the Canton of Geneva and the Vallée de Joux. Established in 1839.

I own a Patek watch. I don’t know what to do with it when I croak. My kids don’t wear watches. I’m thinking of selling it now and taking a luxury trip. LOL

My Dad told me that’s not how you open a pocketwatch. You need to kind of catch the cover, don’t let it just flap open, you’ll break the latch.

Life is short — use the good china!

Nice story arc would be if they had the watch appraised and realized it was a car, college for two kids AND Sergio’s retirement.

That could explain abuelo Conrado’s very long arms

I have a Mickey Mouse pocket watch in my collection.

Here’s the money to fix up your Chevy Baldo.

Middle Earth? Oh, Cruz – you can do better than that…

Take good care of that watch, Baldo, it’s priceless!

Not a good idea to trust a teenager with something of value. We bought our daughter a nice camera for her high school photography class. She asked a stranger to watch it while she went to the restroom. When she came back, the stranger and the camera were both gone.

No, the watch won’t, but J.R.R. Tolkien can.

I think that we all know where this leads.

Thank you Hector&Carlos! You prompted me to dig out my old pocket watch. I begged and pleaded my parents to buy it for me as a teenager. Of course, what I thought was cool was another thing to be derided for back then by my schoolmates. I never changed my mind about it being cool, but I think it would be better accepted now…. Thanks again!

Like in a Laurel&Hardy movie,that watch is doomed.All half million dollars of it.

I’m impressed that Baldo can tell time “in analog”. Can he read and write in cursive, too?

… I can never tell if these “HAHA TEENAGER DOSEN’T KNOW OLD THING” is overkill or sadly accurate. I question this one more not because a teenager would be familiar with watches, but because Pocket Watches show up in the media just enough as a cool old timey thing for me to not be convinced not one movie or tv show Cruz has seen has had one.

Oh my. A teenager should not be walking around with a Patek Philippe!

Baldo can have his car resto money in no time … or will he lose the watch ?
