Here is one that I wished I kept...

Please feel free to add your pictures...

Maybe another drink from the lobby is in order

Not a huge collector of the 12s, but let this one slip through the cracks. sigh...

Jon-

Do you remember what watch was in the elk case? was it solid or just a nice gf case?

Jared

And another...

Jared,

That was a 16s OF - GF and do not remember what the movement was. Sold it probably 2 yrs ago, for way tooooooooooo cheap.

I've got one in 16s 10 year, made by the philadelphia watch case company. exact same only this one is a hunting case with the same elk on both sides.

Jared,

Hey, hey... Double the elk pleasure! That is sweet!

This one had a neat little bridge and mountains...

I sold via auction an 18s Elgin Veritas 23j in a coin silver case with domed crystal a few years back that I occasionally have ping of guilt over selling.

Sellers remorse is an unforgiving thing.

Regards! Mark

No Everything has a price. If your willing to pay I'm willing to sell. My Maiden Lane Yes, My Grade 181 Illinois 16sz in a Multi color Hc case. Yes. My 62,000 serial # Gruen Assaman First one every made.

You can't take it with you. And my philosophy if you will not use it why keep it.

Hey I even sold my 163.

I sold it because we needed a new dryer, so it wasn't so much of 'not using it'. I was.

It was a means to an end, and I still regret having to go that route....but my wife is happy, and that's 99.9999999999% of life.

Regards! Mark

I understand Mark. I sold my 163 and my 950b to Larry because I wanted some cash for vacation. I'm not rich. But the way I look at it. I'll find more. I know someday it will be harder. But when you beat the bushes as much as I do. There is always something dropping out.

I haven't been so fortunate in that regard, and I tip my hat to you my friend for all your success in finding treasures to date!

Regards! Mark

Mark -

Our mind is a funny creature, on day one it is good with the sale of an item, and then a few miles down the road things appear in the rearview mirror...

I totally agree, Jon.
