As I suggested, this listing calls for a Euro-road-trip... as unsavory as such journeys may be.




Oh I just love this video! by the way the watch was unlisted after one day!!!!!!!!!!!!!😡Matt

I went truly vintage today with a little 126-6 from 1951.


An interesting, but not unusual case back. I have no idea who or what Stotsaker is (was). Hopefully, Interpol won't be looking for these fingerprints.

Stötsaker is Swedish for "shockproof". I think you're off the hook. 😀

that dial...(((drool)))

Thanks. That's why I bought it! Gave up a really nice Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece to fund most of it.

I think a 1971 Heuer Autavia, a 1947 IWC ss caliber 89, and a 1949 Bulova excellency also went plus a fistful of cash.

Leonard Caldwell doesn't wear this watch any more...........so I wear it in on his behalf.

It's a nice Omega bubble back with a pristine black dial. Which makes it really hard to photograph 😡

Any tips?

Didn't seem to do a bad job! It's near impossible to get no reflection at all... Light coming in from a small window usually works and maybe some paper held over the top to limit the reflection.. Good luck! 😉

.... Oh, and a very nice early bumper?

No, a 490 that needs a bath 😁


And I just can't resist those beautiful swan-neck regulators.
