Vintage Earnest Borel cocktail watch cal 20

Found in a box...... a vintage Earnest Borel cocktail watch with cal 20 synchron 16, 17 jewels with exhibition case back. My late mothers watch from the early 60's and intend to give it to the wife as a keep-sake. Wonderful how a vintage watch can restore so many memories. Manual wind, dial has turning Kaleidoscope rotor. Swiss made.

That's a really cool watch; a perfect keepsake.

"The Cocktails come in five different patterns on the rotating, transparent kaleidoscope discs: flower, sun, arrows, star, wheel"

introduced in 1953.

which style do you think your moms is? Wheel?? I can't tell lol.

I am un-clear of it's pattern but it seems to resemble sun rays as it turns..... thanks for the info.
