That is stunning Bucko, worth every penny, I wish I could of afforded it, but at least it went to a great home.


You know where that photo needs to go! Along with a family shot that would be cool.

On eBay UK you can filter through the categories 'Jewellery & Watches' to 'Watches' and then to 'Boxes, Cases & Watch Winders', then filter further to show used items only, I also ran a search for 'Girard Box'.

I will keep an eye out and let you know if I spot another one.
