Footnotes

Quarter Century Club watches were made specifically for T. Eaton Company Limited which was a major Canadian department store established by Timothy Eaton in 1869 in Toronto. They were awarded to employees after completing 25 years of service. The company also owned related companies and factories such as the Eaton Knitting Company, for whom the current watch was produced. These watches only had the words 1/4 Century Club spelled out on the dial and were signed 'Eaton' in the centre instead of Rolex.
