Re: Aviation Scans -- "Actually Flown" Category

Both are terrific examples and the with the "scars of use" they are beautiful tools of the trade!

: That Gallet is spectacular . . . wow, talk about a situation where
: the box and papaers, and even the engraving, add some romance
: and some value. Maybe this is the ultimate example of a watch
: that is telling us its story!!

: Since you have started the aviation scan day with one that may have
: a lot of actual flight time, let me reply with this one --
: Israel Defense Forces Autavia (with the black-on-black registers
: and white hands). Of the various pilot's watches in my
: collection, I would guess that this one had as much flying time
: as any of them.

: The dings and dents on the AMI chrono also suggest that it has seen
: some action.
