Can someone buy this so I don't have to?

So I'm mildly obsessed with looking at old Longines watches on Chrono24. I recently spotted this absolutely incredible set with the Lindbergh Hour Angle watch.

I've been looking at these models for a while now, I tried on one of the old 38mm versions some time ago but decided against it because the size is just a little small for my liking.

So imagine how excited I was when I saw this branded Longines briefcase, a wooden model of the Spirit of St Louis and a full colour book all about the watch and the event that created it!

The reason I've not bought it already? My watch fund is empty. I picked up my Air King in January and I have another watch or two on Pre-Order. I definitely don't regret any of these factors, but it does really make me wish I had unlimited money.

Oh well. Maybe if it's still miraculously still for sale in a few months...

Wow! The crown looks like a mining drill bit.

Nice package. Look forward to seeing you modeling it. 😉

I wish I could elaborate a better phrase, a good text to express the awe this has made me feel. But I can’t. Wow.

I hope nobody purchases it, so that you can….
