...now to the story of a precious family heirloom that was lost for 80 years. A pocket watch taken by a Nazi soldier during World War II has been returned, and it still works. Phibie Hopson reports.
Alfred Offistride was learning to become a watch maker when he lovingly crafted the round, silver pocket watch in 1910 as an 18th birthday present for his brother Louie. The watch was stolen by a Nazi soldier when the brothers, who were Jewish, were arrested during the Second World War and sent to Auschwitz (YES, I BINGED). Neither survived the Holocaust.
本帖隐藏的内容The watch was found 80 years later in a farm in Belgium. Exactly how it got there is a mystery. Historian Robs Needus, who specialises in Jewish history, says it was likely left to the farm when people across Belgium were forced to accommodate Nazis. Thanks to the original inscriptions on the watch and (the) social media, the watch was finally returned to the maker's grandchildren in a tearful gathering in Rotterdam.
Phibie Hopson.
