Finally got my Physician

I've been watching for one of these for awhile.  It's a bit rough around the edges... heh (pun intended) but with a little love it from timemachines goldsmithing it should look okay!

The other two in the lot are just gravy and can either be sold as parts watches or parted out myself.

I'm very happy with the lot for $67 bucks... I'd have easily paid that just for the Physican.

No appologies necessary.  I'm glad one of us got it.  If I had really wanted it, I sure woulda bid more than $64.  I do that often, and don't necessarily kick myself in the but...but I say "next time"...then do it again a day later.  I had kinda wanted to point us to the watches when I sain in the PM "I'm more interessted in another watch from the same seller.  I was hoping yous folks would look to so at least one of us got it.   We probably do this to each other often, but that's part of the process.

are you kidding old ticker....I'm such a cheapskate that I only bid $64.  My wife just said, "when's the last time you saw one on there"?  I said "quite a while".  She laughed and said "well you obviously didn't wnat it that bad".  She was right.  She usually is.

Haha... I had it up to a hundo on that guy... I've been looking for one for under that for quite some time.  

I'm just dumb is all.

Greg - that guy must have bought an old watchmakers lot or something.  Some nice pieces in there that if he would have broken them up would have fetched him more money... or if he had taken any effort at all at cleaning them up.

He had a lot of Bulova's & Accutron's listed...and did quite well on many of them as a lot, but I agree, if he would have cleaned them up a bit and listed them individually, he would have done much better.

But you know how we love sellers like this!
