Hi all,

My wife would like to find a ladies pendant style watch to hang on a
necklace. It should be small, but more importantly, it's face should be
"upside down" so that it can be read just by lifting it, without having to
turn it right side up.

Any pointers?

Thanks in advance,

Scott

Scott, I don't know where you are located but the nurses in Texas wear wrist
watches. Almost any ''ladies'' pocket watch, 0s,8o or 6o size, can be made
to connect to a clasp (pinned to blouse) or worn on a chain around the neck.
I have one, in my collection, that has a lug attached to the case, at the 6
o'clock pos. This may suffice for what your wife wants.

Happy hunting

Here it seems to be optional. Upside down pendant watches are common in
the profession. As a cancer patient, I have more than ordinary experience
with hospitals and nurses!
