Hi MTF Nothing to be chicken about!! The prices that were obtained today are an eye opener. AQ wanted my jump seconds 8 day clock ( with original wooden shipping Box Omega marked) but told me to expect 1,500 dollars. It was not worth my time to meet them.... 

Thanks for posting your article over here Bill.
