Thank you for your kind words, good sir! Its a relief to hear I have chosen wisely and I will definitely protect this beauty the best I can! I have to thank you personally again, as you have been one of the contributing factors to me being comfortable and somewhat adept at navigating the vintage watch market. If not for your advice on this platform, I would have been bamboozled into buying a Franken from hell itself! I thank you once again, good sir! Always a pleasure to hear from you💪🏽🥳🥳
