It was there only briefly - another black waffle was at the top of my "buy it when you see it" list, so I pulled the trigger pretty quickly. Duly noted.
Didn't exactly buy this today but have only just found the time to post pics, my first hummer and I am very happy with it. And it is great to have a watch that I can pick up and wear without having to set the time.
Posted in the WRUW section as well. Alpina cal 592. Picked up at less then we pay for a full case of beer. Movement is prestine (but dry) partly due to the use of a designated dust cover, and dial has aged very gently for a +/- 60 year old watch. The crystal was damaged, and the sellers picture not very flattering. I think the improvement of a new crystal and a 30 minutes of cleaning was worth the efforts? (First photo is sellers pic.)
Really nice pick-up. Very attractive, and those Alpinas are underrated. The cases are especially nice. Cheers, Tony C.
I was headed out for a bike ride, and I caught the mailman before he came down my street. Naturally, like a good WIS,I had him pull my package then and there... Thanks, David (Modest Proposal)!
