A fascinating and highly collectible pair of Victorian “universal” scissors, made in Germany and interesting in both function and novelty.

Made from stainless steel, these scissors incorporate a variety of additional tools, including a marking wheel and integrated rulers, reflecting the practical innovation of late 19th century design. Pieces such as these were prized for their versatility, often used in sewing or needlework.

What makes this example particularly unusual is the inclusion of a rare Stanhope lens set into one handle. When viewed through the lens, it reveals a tiny photographic image . In this case, depicting three nude female figures.

Stanhopes were a popular Victorian curiosity, typically featuring landscapes, landmarks, or commemorative scenes. Examples with erotic imagery are far less commonly encountered, making this piece especially desirable as a novelty and collector’s object.

Combining practical craftsmanship with hidden intrigue, this is a rare and characterful Victorian item, perfect for collectors of antiques or curios.

Used Watch?
Color: Black/Gray/Digital
The watch is great but the watch had been worn. The protective film was removed and it was loose in the watch box and not on the plastic holder. I bought a new watch not a used one. Joe

My last Timex and why.
Color: Black/Gray/Digital, Color: Black/Gray/Digital
New edit. Upon further reflection, I’ve only had, a couple of exploratory years with Swatch excepted, Timex watches. My first one was when my mother replaced the Chicita Banana “tickity tock” sticker with a real Timex wind up watch before my first Cub Scout camp. In addition to many other Timex products, I’ve had these Ironman watches for the past 25+years. Usually the band wears out and can’t be replaced after three or four years. This particular watch fell apart less than six weeks old. It wasn’t hit by impact. It just came apart while I was driving down the road. I wonder if they’ve changed their manufacturing process. See photo for details. What is truly infuriating is that rather than replacing it, because it is truly a warranty issue, the told me to ship it to their offshore repair facility (which could take 3-5 months) and pay what might be half the value of the watch. Things happen, but the intentional friction they have created to avoid their obligations borders on malpractice and speaks to their indifference toward customer experience and subsequent lifetime value.
