Colour plate by Cecil Aldin (1870-1935) of 'The Grand National, Canal Turn'

Print Sz: x 6"H x 11 3/4"W

Frame Sz: 7"H x 12 1/2"

This is one of a set of four views Cecil Aldin painted of the Grand National, which were published by Richard Wyman in 1920. The others in the series are The First Open Ditch, Bechers Brook and Valentines Brook. The Grand National in 1920 was a particularly exciting race, in which only five horses finished. The winner was Troytown at 6 to 1, ridden by Mr Jack Anthony and trained by Algy Anthony. The Canal Turn is negotiated twice during the Grand National, as the eighth and twenty-fourth fences. It is notable particularly for the sharp left hand turn which the riders have to take as soon as they have negotiated the fence. The turn is almost a right angle and it is not uncommon for jockeys to be unseated as they lose their balance, which has obviously happened in this case. This is a particularly unusual subject by Cecil Aldin, because he actually includes himself in the picture, on the left, with his groom. Later in his career, Aldin often sketched from a coach, which he had swapped with a friend, Godfrey Heseltine, in return for a life-size portrait of a heavyweight basset. Thereafter, the Aldins often used the coach as a grandstand at race meetings like the Grand National or Derby, enabling the artist to watch and sketch in peace, high above the crowds

Worst watch I have ever purchased!
Color: 2858-Silver Gold-Black Face
The rods in between in each link aren’t solid rods at all! They’re made up of almost long, thin staples that bend and break EXTREMELY easily. Taking them off is incredibly difficult to begin with! I’ve removed links on hundreds of watches, it’s not my first rodeo, it has never been this ridiculously difficult due to extremely cheap materials. I wish I could give this a negative 100, never seen a cheaper watch. It’s extremely light and looks nothing like the picture either. Seriously, don’t waste your time. It’s the worst, cheapest watch you can buy. I shouldn’t expect better from Amazon.

Nice looking but horrible clasp design
Color: 2858-All Black-Black Gold
Nice watch. The only bad thing is the clasps on the wrist band is horrible. One little bump and it opens up and then you have to try to catch the watch in case it completely falls off. I'd recommend only buying this if you are willing to change the wristband out otherwise half the time you will be fighting it from opening up and slipping off.

Best watch for 40 bucks
Color: Blue Face/Silver Strap, Color: Blue Face/Silver Strap
Works well, tells time, bang for your buck. People are complaining about esthetics and breaking after a while. You're spending 40 bucks on a watch what do you expect? Cmon. Its good for the price buy this one if you want something cheap, functional, and stylish.
