A couple of weeks ago, Hodinkee had a flea market of vintage watches in New York City, and I sent five watches to be offered for sale. The courier that I used to send the watches to New York City had other plans, however, and the watches arrived at Hodinkee headquarters several days after the flea market had closed. A few days later, they were back in my hands.

Notwithstanding this unfortunate turn of events, I would still like to sell the watches, so I have taken the five watches that have made the round trip to NYC, added a couple of additional watches, and now offer these seven watches for sale.

I believe that it is fair to say that all these watches are “priced to sell”. Still, I am willing to consider reasonable offers. Purchaser responsible for shipping and insurance (which is required); payment by bank wire.

There are more photos of these watches here -- http://www.onthedash.com/4sale/2012Dec/

Thanks,

Jeff
