Ok. I'll start with this one. In transit at the moment from Romania. I was the only bidder at the starting bid of £6.99. Picked it up to use as a donner movement for the H558 project that is on the cards. Just checked XE currency convertor for £-$. $11.30 at todays exchange rate. Do i still get to play, as technically it is under the magic 10 number

A £10 limit would make this a bit easier than a $10 limit.....?

You might get a working one for $10. Ah! It is a running watch. The stem was broken - hence the listing as spares/broken. I opened the back and the balance was just swinging away. I have a stem coming from Stefan and a crystal from some guy in Colorado - this thing's gonna clean up nicely! D.
