    Ingraham movement mounting tabs

    I will post pictures in the AM when I get home from work, but from what I am reading it just might be easier to find a front mount movement. I thought that perhaps it was possible to just remove the pin and pull the post and turn it around.

    problem clients - how do you deal with them?

    You were very reasonable on all counts. For some reason I seem to notice more buyers/customers being more unreasonable as of late, I thought it was just me.

    Omega Seamaster De Ville

    Does the back pop off or screw off? I hate to scratch it up. I also noticed that the band is marked 10K GF caps on top. Also, It seems that it was a 25th anniversary gift from General Motors to an employee as that is what is engraved on the back of the watch

    How many clocks do you need to have to be considered a collector?

    I was always told 3 or more of anything constitutes a collection.......and *Sigh*....I do have clocks in the bathroom......And when visitors to your home make comments like "Hmmm Looks like the opening scenes of "Back to the Future" in here"....then you start to think, do I have too many clocks?

    New Coo-Coo Clock

    Here are pics of the Coo-Coo clock that belonged to my Great-Aunt, it pretty much has been sitting in the original gift box since 1953, as she said that it drove everyone nutz!
