Anyway: back to nice and correct watches. One of my hobbies is being the underbidder. This early 12551 - first series so with the protruded pushers - just sold for CHF 3.566 or EUR 3.800.

6k? Make that 11k.... (and already sold) https://goldammer.me/collections/sold/products/universal-geneve-12551-tricompax-18k-rose-1940s
