In Response To: 'Panda' on eBay ()

Good eye, Bryce. Yes this one has a distinctive fingerprint . . . there are lots of easy marks and spots to follow, but the damage at the "6" on the hour recorder looks most distinctive to me. Faded "10" in the minute recorder is also distinctive.

So this dial has gone (1) from me to Brook, and (2) then to "parts unknown" [literally], via the ChronoTrader listing, and (3) now it's back on eBay.

Top photo shows what it looked like, in my hands. Bottom photo is from the current eBay listing.

Of course, the one currently being sold on eBay has the wrong hands; might be interesting to know the case number.
