This is a superb example of a vintage Babe Ruth wristwatch that is thought to date its origins to the 1960’s, a seemingly as-issued treasure that features a striking portrait of The Babe on the watch’s face along with a blue facsimile signature. A red, white and blue leather watchband appears to have been subjected to very little wear; the watch is neatly ensconced in an Ex-Mint condition 10-by-3-inch plastic case, with silk background with “Helbros” imprinted, along with black felt base. It’s a simply amazing artifact depicting arguably the greatest player in the history of the game.
