[QUOTE="thor447, post: 4289050, member: 24867"] I've put together quite a collection of (mostly) vintage watches. While I have duplicates of some and unique pieces of others, I can't wear them all. I've decided it's time to pass some on to others who will appreciate them and wear them more often. A big part of the fun for me is the process of bringing watches back into service, and sorting them out mechanically. I can tell you with confidence that every single watch being put up for sale here is in excellent working order, having all been serviced by me - or in the case of the newer mechanical watches (#1 & #7), the regulation has been fine tuned and they are running better than when they came out of the box.
