Hey howdy hey, and welcome to another curated list of vintage goodies from yours truly! This week, I’m in the holiday shopping, home-decorating, cookie-baking, gift-giving sort of mood. There’s only so much time in a day or week to devote to making sure you find that perfect holiday gift (or seven) for mom, dad, the kids, your best friend, or your special someone. Time… it surrounds us, it’s ever-fleeting… and Disney has made some pretty cute wrist pieces over the years. That’s right, this week, we’re looking at vintage Disney watches that are currently available on eBay. These are just a few of my favorites, but there really is an endless amount out there. These are an easy gift idea for yourself or anyone on your Christmas list; perhaps Aunt Beatrice who likes Goofy maybe a little too much (hey, join the club)? And like I always say… they just don’t make them like they used to. Let’s dive into this week’s finds!
First up, let’s please our Goofy fans. Lorus made quite a few face watches for Disney, including Mickey, Minnie, Pooh, Tigger, and even Dopey. But this Goofy one is my favorite! His shiny gold face is probably the most elegant way he could be portrayed on a watch.

Let’s ramp up our holiday theme. This adorable 1994 piece features Mickey, Donald and Goofy decorating a Christmas tree. If you’re looking for a more unique piece, I’ve skimmed through quite a few watches this week, and there’s not many of this one out there! Plus, it includes a sweet book box?

I can hear the Tapestry of Nations music now… this next piece is another rare find, featuring collectible art inside the watch face celebrating the millennium at EPCOT. Remember that giant hand, wand and ‘2000’ above Spaceship Earth? Now you can always be reminded! Let’s celebrate the future hand in hand!

Speaking of EPCOT, this next piece features flags from around the world, and even plays ‘it’s a small world”! This one’s pretty common to find online, but the musical feature often isn’t working. Click through to this listing to watch and hear the music play in the seller’s video; the little music note hand jumps along to the song!

Cake castle fans — I know we’re small in numbers, yet mighty — this one’s for you! This vintage Disney Catalog watch and pin set is a rare one to find. As you shop vintage Walt Disney World 25th memorabilia, you’ll often come across a plain anniversary logo on watch faces, but to have that Pepto-pink castle on your wrist is pretty special! It’s time to remember the magic.
Available HERE | $49.99, Auction
Last but certainly not least, we have a vintage skeletal C-3PO watch from the glorious Star Wars merch era of Episode I. I’m obsessed with the mixing of gold and silver tones, and the vibrant coloring of his wires. A perfect gift for any Star Wars fan! Will this agony ever end?
