This Glycine was stolen Jan 12 from a USPS mail truck that had its windows broken and packages removed. Happened in Portland, Oregon. Police report was filed where it will collect dust.
Ironies abound:
Watch had been gone half a year for repair. After getting it back, it had to be returned because the date change was at noon instead of midnight on this 24 hour watch. Understandable mistake as this unusual dial is flipped. Because the watch required a signature and no one was home, the carrier took it back to the truck. If he hadn't, it would not have been in the truck when it was robbed.
Also, i sold a rare 1962 Bulova Astronaut to pay for this watch and repair (it was an expensive service.) So in effect I am out two rare watches.
A sad tale of two watches.
