Well we're off to a pretty slow start but let's get the ball rolling... Here's how it works-
PM me to get put on the list
Receive the box
Take a pic, just a general "mystery lot" pic. Don't want to ruin the surprise!
Select an item or three.
Post another pic bragging up your "score". Bonus for pics of item(s) in use.
PM the next member on the list requesting a mailing address. (This could be done in advance)
Toss some more crap in the box and ship it off!
"Rules" :
1- crap can be anything watch related. Watches, straps, parts etc...
2- try to keep the quality of crap above garbage (use your own judgement)
3- consider using bags or containers for small parts. Label stuff that might not be obvious so it doesn't get deemed garbage
4- please don't take stuff just to flip. If it's a piece to go towards completing a project for sale that's fine but if you don't have a specific use for something let's keep it "not for profit"
5- K.I.S.S.

Put me in coach I’m ready to play Added! We should put a map or a registry of some sort in the box. With any luck this could do some miles (miles are like kangaroo hops or whatever km stands for)!

I think it's a medium (?) So about $13 to move it along. I guess we have to wait and see what mcgruber puts together! Stay tuned....

Sorry guys. I meant to check in on this earlier. It's been a nuts week! Is this in the mail then? Looks good mcgruber! So if none else in the States wants it I guess I can move to spot four and volunteer to ship it over seas if there's any interest......? Anywhere.....? DOA? 😞

The package should arrive any day now, I'll have to check the tracking number when I get off work. I wrapped alot of small items in newspaper, so check the box well whenever you receive it. I wrapped a surprise item in Christmas paper, I hope it makes someone's day!

Cant wait to see how it turns out. The balance wheel looked awful, but parts are easy to come by. It has good bones but was rode hard and put away wet.
