    AT LAST - STABLE COMPLETED

    So after several years searching, I have managed to find a complete, unmolested example.


    It was not a bargain, not like its younger brother, but nice examples are not easy to find.
    In fact, I have only seen one previously for sale in this condition.
    I will have my sister pick it up, and give it to me when we meet up in July at my Fathers 80 th birthday in the Czech Republic
    I just do not trust the boys and girls at DHL or FedEx with a such rare treasure!
    Not to speak about our local Customs people.

    AAAHHHH! Can not wait!

    Many congrats Jan!

    I would consider your "new treasure" to be an early LACO B-Uhr with an "A-dial"

    Am I right?

    ............and how will you stand the waiting time till your father's anniversary?

    Yes, a 1940 A dial !

    It will be a couple of long months, I have to keep my mind off it. I guess it has to go to Laco for a service, so I might send it to them from the Czech Rep.

    In the same austion, there was a fab 1929 German Pilots watch, a Helvetia, but I missed that one.
    I overslept the auction, as we were out last night with a couple of friends.
