Rick and Watch Fred.....

That seems to be more of a quality "easter egg hunt" of parts, springs, gears, cases than simply going and "buying" a good quality Ling on E-Bay....That watch came out beautiful...congrats....In your cases it seems that the "hunt" is the thrill, and lasts much longer that just plunking down dollars across a counter...!!!

I really enjoy the "stories" and history of these fine timepieces....THANKS :D

You know what you have and a little work makes you appreciate it and love it a lot more. To make it what it becomes takes work and that makes te watch special. Anyone can buy a vintage watch quote MINT but how much would you love that watch because another will come available tomorrow claiming to be better. But are you shore. When you restore one and keep it original you know exactly what you have!!!!!
