still awfully quiet here, like on most fora.

But some of you might enjoy what came in today from Craig; complicated movement issues have apparently made the original owner put it in a drawer for half a century or so, this is the 4th steel ref. 786 I remember over the years, hen's teeth that survived in rather decent condition.

As you write, Fred : "in rather decent condition" ...
