    @Northernman, @AAAKK

    Thank you! KF 320 (Kurth Freres)

    Here's a nice reference from a 1947 German catalogue (credit: vintagecertinas.ch), which, among other things, confirms the authenticity of the relatively large crown:

    Really a post about what I didn't buy! If a member of the forum beat me to Michael E's 105.012 66 at a healthy price on eBay last night please don't post any photos, it will just rub salt in the wounds! Bought a boxed with papers Surmanskie 17j I had my eye on a little later to console myself!
    Now need to start saving again to have another go at getting a 105.012 65/66!
