    Here are some photos of one of my latest finds whilst on holiday in Germany.
    A mint condition ek2 by Wachtler und Lange.
    I could not believe how pristine this cross looked when I first saw it.
    Hope you like it.
    regards John

    John gorgeous piece of history, good for you, your Dad was smiling on you when you made that purchase........I know the feeling all too well from last year, sometime we need to get in gear and even purchase something for our interests to spark us up.

    hang in there

    Hi Erich, hope your well and tip top mate.
    I have a few more purchases I will share in the coming days.

    Thanks for your words on my dad. I will have to post a picture of him, as he always made me laugh when he wore my SS fez. We set him up once, you will se what I mean when I post it. He was one of lifes true gentlemen.

    kind regards John
