The Images left are from Mr Simon Steggall who has kindly sent us these photos. One of the watches was recovered by Cobwebs in 1982 from the Lusitania wreck site. Mr Steggall also got one of the watch cases too so had the watch restored and put in the case. He used a 1915 watch of the same make/model for spares. All the ferrous metals have been replaced, but most of the watch is original. Click on photos for larger and better views.

The fayre, whilst it is certainly rich, it is not quite as elaborate as one would expect in First Class aboard such a ship and there aren't enough courses! The Saloon Class menu (as seen above) tend to have a lot more ornate decoration around them. KATE GILBERT/LUSITANIA ONLINE Sunday September 13th 1914 Six weeks after the outbreak of the Great War, the Saloon Class Menu was still as rich and lavish as ever! Lusitania’s Breakfast Menu (Image courtesy of www.liveauctioneers.com and Hantman's Auctioneers and Appraisers. Via Lusitania Online). Two hallmarked silver teaspoons both depicting the Lusitania, both of which are in the possession of Phil Irwin. They belonged to his Father's maiden aunt who died in the 1970s. She had been the Housekeeper to the Duke of Norfolk both at Arundel Castle (not far from Southampton) and at the Norfolk's house in London for many years. Both are marked "Southampton" and what could be Samuel. The maker's hallmarks are from Birmingham and bear the date 1910. Samuel's of Southampton is probably where they were purchased, but given that the Lusitania never visited that port, it remains something of a mystery as to whether they were purchased by the Norfolks as souvenir items aboard the ship or just as commemorative pieces from a shop in Southampton.Either way, they make a most handsome, and unusual addition to our Lusitania gallery.
