Here's a Third One -- Here in the US *LINK*
In Response To: Gold Carreras *LINK* ()


click the link at the bottom to see another one, offered for sale on TimeZone. So now we have three in a week, after seeing only one in the past three years?

. . . Like when you wait a long time for the bus, then three come along, nose-to-tail.

Seller mentions that it has "New Dial, New Hands, Crown Pushers, Crystal, seals, and gaskets" in a recent overhaul. How does this affect its value?
