·For those of you who didn’t see or don’t remember back in April or may I purchased my first ever constellation. A full set dogleg from the original owner on a peanut bracelet.
It was amazing. I still havent gotten it back from service yet but think about it all the time. I will never need another constellation ever again in my life. Well, at least that’s what I told my wife. 😀
Yesterday evening I got these two in:
A 14381 arrow head and what I believe to be a 2852. The dogleg full set I found with @janice&fred old fashioned boots on the ground method but these two came from the new world online Avenue where believe it or not I was able to get a good price on.
more pictures to show off these 2 beauties:
Both appear to be great acquisitions. The 2852 seemingly untouched and the 14381 with uncommon arrow head configuration. As fate would have it, I have a dear friend and mentor @gbesq who I know was seeking a lyre lug arrow head steel on steel example so I offered it to him immediately. He happily obliged. What happened next ? Well we decided that I should hand deliver the watch as it would have been done in the old days like the time when these vintage watches were born
You can see the watch roll on the table. We talked for hours. About watches, each others backgrounds, significant others, religion, life, and everything in between. A fantastic night between 2 great friends made in part by this very forum so I thank you.
Oh and here is the obligatory wrist shot of the 14381 arrowhead on the wrist of its new and happy owner
have a great night OF family.
