    I don't always Shill, but when I do, I do it Internationally.

    Almost sounds glamorous when you put it like that Chris - Fine Wines, Cuban Cigars, fast cars, homes on three continents and beautiful women it’s all down to a successful career in International Shilling.

    Keep away from those Certinas... International shills or not, they all belong to me!

    Heres a nice clean vintage Certina worth looking at.

    Price is still low with one day left.
    of course the price will climb in the closing minutes.

    looks like an ST96 movement.

    If I hadn't depleted my budget for this month I'd probably bid on it.

    I don’t always go for Certinas, but know that I know it will irritate Troels... ;)

    Damn and it's less than $50 right now. Too bad I also have blown the budget for this month and next on family Holiday gifts.

    An ST 96? Looks to me more like the Kurth Freres movement I would expect to see in a Certina.

    Looks to me like the Kurth/Certina I would expect to see in this watch. Image also from Ranfft.

    I see you and raise you.
    I enjoyed this eBay watch listing so much that I screenshot it.
