I realize that at least 10 other watches I have owned or worked on had radium. I did not scrape off the radium but other than that, I pretty much did everything I should not do.Ħ months later, I learn that radium watches are common and that this watch had radium. BTW, I did this on my bed, near my pillow where I sleep. I returned the watch to the seller since it was not working. Don't laugh at my stupidity, I already have so much anxiety because of this and am traumatized. Like a complete idiot, I decided to smell the area of that visible dust to see if it had a odor. It wasn't anything like ever seen in a watch. As soon as I did this, I noticed some sort of visible gas come out of the watch and I was super intrigued. I had heard about the radium girls prior to this but had no idea these watches were still being sold everywhere without any warning.īasically I took this watch, opened it up by separating the dial from the frame (which is easy to do on these watches since the movement can be easily lifted from the body). I was NOT aware that watches with radium were sold at all.

I buy and sell watches for a profit and figured I would flip this one for double what I paid. Ok so this situation is what got me interested in radiation but about 10 months ago I bought this radium 1928 Bulova.
