Charles Floyl Forsyth was an American lawyer and served as a senator from Kansas from 1961 to 1964. Joël Duval has documented the history of his purchase on the Forum at Watches. Expert’s note: Due to the lack of factual evidence, apart from Mr. Duval’s account, we cannot definitively attribute this watch to the US Senator.
