Q
Ebay is a really good place to look right now. This economy is so bad that things are going very cheap. I saw a 992B go for 148 dollars. Steel case bar over the crown. Unheard of price for a 992B. Yea I am sure it needed service but come on that price !!

You should pick yourself up a Hamilton 992 ... That is such a great watch and small to carry .. you can get a real deal now. The 992 was certified by every single RR in its time. The circa 1920's ones are incredible and if you find one that needs repaired I got the guy for sure.

The best BW Raymond I have ever seen is Greg's key wind 1867 that the Amish guy is fixing for him ... My gosh that is some beauty, stunning.

A great BW Raymond will round out my RR collection and someday after I find my Bunn I will pick one up ... I like the circa 1920's BW's most
