Aloha , This today another ...Thrift Shop Score ......  .... and another ...  . I was at home yesterday and my Wife had a call from my Thrift Shop Girl so I went down to see her and this was there in a Zip Lock Bag with the price of .. $15.00 USD. She told me the manager says to sell it to your friend because he likes broken watch's. She says to sell it because it does not wind up to work. When I looked at it the Crown was half Way out and the watch was not working. So I told the Girl about it and she said that the women said just to sell it. So ....The ...$15.00 USD goes out .....and a Tip of Ten to my Beautiful Girl there. So I did it last night and it is running good now. When I opened it up it had a ...... Hacking 6306A .... in it and in very good shape too. Aloha Louis Seiko 6309-7040 with a ...6306 A ... Hacking in it.   This how it looks now :  |

Did some hardware swapping this morning. That puts the 6309-7290 on it's original GL831, sneak peek of my current project on it's original Z199, and the US199 on my 7548-700F.  |

My favorite jewelery counter lady fell I'll a while back and the store is slacking on the sorting and pricing of stuff. By my reckoning they should have quite a pile going in the back. I'm going to hit a few other shops this afternoon, many my luck will change 👍😎 |

But the Contact there has to be taken cared off also and it will be a big benefit. I like to treat the seller good but not at a bribe point. Appreciation is a very important factor in the everyday and for me it is major area to be in. Louis |
