I found this beastie in an old watchmakers lot I purchased. I don't think I want to fix it up. If someone wants it, just reimburse me for the shipping, and it's all yours!

JJ's probably lining his up for a pic thread as we speak. It will probably take him an hour just to get his Rado safe open.

JJ will not post.
JJ is one of the biggest Rado collectors in the world but
due to fear of robbers he does not let anyone know this.
His Rado collection is his most priceless treasure in the world
and he is trying to horde every one he can, that is why he talks
bad about the brand as he wants to keep prices down.

JJ Who Love Ya Baby!

In India we get Rolexes and cars for dowry JJ.

Rados are much difficult to get! I waited for twenty years for this one.
