As Jack Nicholson's Joker in the Batman movie said, "Where does he get those wonderful toys?" Honestly, running out of superlatives. A joy to view.

Well, Scott, this one is an excellent example to show "where - and how - he gets those wonderful toys"

It turned out to be probably one of the nicer surviving ref. 769.

Took, as I always say:
a little bit of knowledge,
a lot of patience -
and a tremendous amount of luck.

But if you are ready to invest the first two, those lucky punches do happen quite frequently,
for quite affordable prices - just add a little courage to the recipee, to decide quickly, if needed.

This was the primary listing pic on ebay, describing it as a "Breitling Aviator" watch: :P
