Thanks!!

 

What a nice watch ( and what generosity...) , congratulations

Forums are just forums without giving members like this. I'm proud to be part of this community ;-)

 

Got it off the inevitable ebay. I already had a spare bracelet and the end pieces came off a donor watch

 

Nice one. Regret it more and more that I didn't buy one 3 years ago.

 

A beautiful timepiece and a fabulous year. I can attest to the quality and perfection of Achim's re-luming if you elect to take him up on his offer.

 

Can't 'like' this 2998 enough!!!!

Hey, now there's an idea

 

Tivo three thumbs up !!
