Afternoon down-grade from Super to standard KonTiki, to celebrate the arrival of a proper GF bracelet dated 4th quarter '58. It fits perfectly without a link or clasp-hole to spare. Phew!

Damn. I was after that too.
I Knew it was you that got it.
With the price he had it at,
I thought I had time to negotiate.
Should have known better.
The time to buy is when you see it.
Maybe there's another out there.
Nice snag

A new arrival, a 1932 Hamilton Cushion in silver with cal. 987 (1 of only 53 made), retailed by the Philadelphia jeweler J.E. Caldwell. This one is pretty much mint.

pitpro, honestly, that verges on poetry. Beautiful meter. It would fit seamlessly in a William Carlos Williams anthology.

Sorry man. But I needed it so badly that I even violated a certain South American eBay no-fly zone to get it.
