It helps a collector on a limited budget own a quality watch! It helps stem the tide of money-grubbing thiefs, pillaging for all they can get! It gives noob's hope to find a jewel if they pay attention! It promotes horological values of conservation and education! Etc., etc. Get the drift?
It's even quite tempting to me right now, and I already own one of these!! Hope it goes to a good OF home!
I was looking at it yesterday. I used to have the exact same watch (@GregH). If I'd be in the money making business, I would have bought this one. Stellar buy, buyer.
Is the second from the left, bottom ss ? It couldn't be wg. I am a repeat customer although I observe all the proprieties! I am probably alone in thinking that piepans are for baking. Give me this style!!
Someone got a very nice watch at a very good price! Well done Norman, you are a credit to this forum! For all you new people, if you see a watch being sold by @X350 XJR check his listing first...I've bought some of my nicest watches from this guy, just sayin'.
