Sheila GilbertI Finally Understand! What a Joy!
I had to write here, because I had to share with all of you, my complete, and overwhelming shock at the Watch I just received.
I get it, I understand why a collector can pay Thousands of dollars for watches.
I didn't pay thousands, but my new watch looks like A MILLION BUCKS!!!!!!!
Honestly, it is GORGEOUS!
I picked it up HERE, and I have to tell you, that the pictures DO IT NO JUSTICE.
Maybe it's because it's my first BUNN, but I don't think so. This watch just Blew me away.
Chris, YOU MADE MY DAY, actually you made my many days for this year, I'm overwhelmed!
What a joy it is to have so many friends that share the same passion you do, and to offer their gems to each of us.
When I opened the watch, I almost cried.
Chris, you are an angel,
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
(can you tell I'm pleased?)
I will post the link so you can see it, but trust me, it's a true GEM in person.

Edward Kitner"One other things you may consider is, that there are a lot of new collectors out there, and I have noticed that there are many ebay "repairers" that simply put anything together for the "newbie" that knows no better. It gets watches sold, so ergo the faulty parts."
Well said Shelia!
I have spent weeks looking a pocket watches on e-bay!
I did bid on two and after more scrutinization I was glad I was out bid.
I found someone to buy from that is honest, fair, and very trusting. The watches I purchased from him were origional, beautiful and I was thrilled when I received them.
Thank you Chris!

Frank KusumotoFor a person with such a blackheart Chris is an excellent watchmaker. He's like the Mozart of horology.
