Here is the watch I bought at the Strongsville show. It is one of my first serious watch purchases. I thought it was attractive and the Illinois name, I gathered from discussions on this site, represents a quality item.

You've gotten a beautiful example of a stylish watch in excellent condition. This is one of only a few grades of Illinois' extra-thin third model 12-size watch.

Tom,

That is a really nice watch indeed. I love those 12s watches more and more everyday.
