Wanted

Good price paid for accumulations and estates of vintage mechanical watch and pocketwatch material and parts. Pre-quartz, pre-battery, Elgin and other American brands in particular, Swiss material less so. Note that I am a watchmaker working to keep the craft alive and well, I am not an antique dealer looking to buy and resell.
