Not proud to show you this one, I feel like a hoarder, I am sure I could settle with just one of them....

But never the less I got this one and have been waiting almost a month for an extract and now it has arrived.

A nice 2990-1 cal. 267 delivered to Finland in 1959, not sure about the crown and I have to get the Radium lumen stabilized 馃榾

Surely a herder rather than a hoarder? These are Rancheros after all. Or is it a different sort of ranch?

if you look at the hands there are a little hole in the radium lumen, I think I have to get the hands of and put some lacquer on the back of the hand so the lumen stay there

So, basically a support from the back so lume doesn't crumble and fall off.

Got it, thanks!

I wouldn't call it hoarding. There are no black dial versions in the picture, and I see there are still some Rancheros out there for sale with either dial for you to pick up. I think you are still just a casual collector.
