then this might be a difference... I have to admit that I initially felt a bit intimidated by the interior and the, well, reserved welcome, but our host warmed up after some time. I will certainly return and see if and how my first impression has to be ad...
Ref. 1503
Hi there. I own this exact watch which belonged to my grandfather and was passed down. It is a wonderful time piece and I have had many people stop me to admire it. I would be curious to know what the selling price is as I know very little about the watch...
