David:

Thanks for being a proud member of the Club. We all have our "mistakes", and it is inherent in the collecting game. I have a pre-Carrera Valjoux 72 chrono with a refinished dial, an Easy Rider that refuses to run (at least while the chrono is operating) and a Zenith El Primero that has spent a total of 18 months with watchmakers and less than four days on my wrist. [ At least it craps put quickly, so you can send it back to the watchmaker (or to another watchmaker) quickly. You can even re-use the packaging.]

Maybe other readers can tell us about their mistakes, as part of your healing / recovery process. Possible Scan Day theme??

And your Franken really is great looking.

Jeff
