I thought I would share some photos of a 15 Ruby Jewel Aurora I just picked up. It is housed in a 14K Solid gold Hunting case.

Excellent Adam! Cool

Where ever did you "pick it up?"

It appears that the lower barrel bridge screw is not original. Knowing what a disappointment that is, I would be glad to take this off your hands so that you will not be plagued by a nagging reminder of your bad luck.

Terry, Below is a close-up. Hope this will do.

Ron, Thanks! It has been within 60 miles of me for the past 6 years. Now it will be within 5, at the bank.

Fred, You are correct, it looks even better in person.

Mike, Let me think about that awhile Smile

Adam,

What a beautiful watch !!

The two-tone, checkerboard movement with the snowflake design is simply marvelous. The 14K case is icing on the cake!

Terry,

Yes it does. It is one of the nicest 18s cases I have seen. Also surprised me that the case wasnt engraved on the "blank" spot. The pattern on the side of the case is great. Almost matches the pattern on movement.
