I find myself attracted to the Getty models lately as they are great timekeepers. Ran this one for about 3 days and did not lose a minute. It has a few flaws but overall decent condition, couple of lines on dial and small chip @ 45 in seconds bit. Case shows wear with no dings etc.

That is pretty Rick, very nice! I love those Getty models also. I had one in an Illinois display case at one time, I wish a hundred times I would have never sold it. It is just something about that model.

"Gents, as matter of interest regarding positions, would that most likely be stem up, stem left and right?"
