New arrival, less than an hour ago . . . One of the mysterious Autavias, with all-lume markers.
Over the last few hours, I had imagined some sort of fancy "reveal" or introduction, but I just can't wait!! It's Friday; we have the "Watch You Wearing" thread going . . . so here it is, the one I am wearing today!!
Bracelet seems to be correct for the watch (4th quarter 1965, with HL endpieces); based on a quick review, finish on the case appears to be original; needs a crystal; needs the correct hands . . . Still, thrilled with this one!!
Wishing everyone a great weekend!! And don't give up on the eBay searches . . . there are still a few of the "barn cars" / "sock drawer" watches!! Just for fun, I'll also post a couple of the eBay photos, below my "quick and dirty", just out of the box shot.
