Re: Warstory...

THAT's what OTD is about. The hunt, the find and the kill.
WHAT a trophy. So chuffed for you.

: ...this one begins with an auction listing in deepest Asia. I
: stumbled upon it on an internet search, which is how I do with
: most things. There were 3 murky photos, and a description merely
: of

: 'Size- Case (Crown excluded): Vertical 4.5 × Width 4㎝. Around
: the arm: about 19 ㎝ Please note these are amateur measurements
: and there may be some errors.

: Condition- Second hand goods · service completed May 18, 2017.
: Unused since service.

: In addition, please confirm condition with the photographs.'

: (There was no mention of Chronomatic anywhere in the listing.)

: What followed was an incredible gamble, with minimal (potentially
: non-existent) protection and a large amount of money at stake.
: It paid off in the magical moments I unwrapped it
: yesterday...........
