To me, these hands come with the graduated bezel, not this one, (on the FF for sale, not yours, of course ) I'd pass on it. Yep, the quest is hard, but interesting! Good luck, my friend, and don't forget to keep us updated. Best, Nicolas This message has ...

Well, only vintage? Would be interested as well Oliver

It would be veeery interesting to see how the Modern are inspired by the Vintage, and to see it in the flesh is worth a thousand pics! I'm in. Anybody knows a Bank to organize it with a maximum of Security? Best, Nicolas

My banker is angry with us all .... but if you promise not to buy watches for a while, I'm sure the bank will open just for us. It´s a really secure bank... Best, hermano Emilio

I would never have bought a single watch! Best, Hermano. Nicolas

Lehmann Brothers, Madoff, ... Banks - things have changed! Not for good. Oliver

Hallo Oliver, yes you a right. The black luenette was made by Dirk from Rheinmeister watches in Geremany. He did a very good job ! The watch has a new character ! Greetings Stephan
