Did I get your attention?  ha-ha

I just snagged this baby today.  It's a ca. 1950 Invicta "Chronographe Suisse" in a solid 18 carat rose gold case.  The Swiss chronograph movement is the famous Landeron 48, which graced the cases of innumerable chronos from 50+ years ago.  My only problem is it won't ship for 9-10 days when the seller returns from vacation.  Bummer that!

I think that's really nice!! I sure don't know much about vintages, I know a little of Invictas, but this vintage Invicta seems to be the real deal. Nicely done, Tom!! Another beauty for in your stable.
