I got it in an M2M deal, it just came with a watch. The clasp says Eulit if that helps. It actually feels very cheap, like it's made of brittle plastic almost. Strange thing.

I actually used a nail file, the problem is I did it long before trying bleach and all the scratches were barely noticeable until it faded. You can imagine my HORROR as I pulled it out I suppose it's time to hit up Raffles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave47 6,545 Posted June 17, 2020 Good Evening, Folks! I trust you are all making an effort to stay safe in these challenging times! For today, a watch purchased several years ago while on a cruise, a watch I didn't have in my collection before -- a SKELETON watch, by STUHRLING ORIGINAL automatic. Got it on a "discount" & cost only $200, but it appeared to be very solid, large (50mm w/o crown; `5mm thick), mounted on a supple rubber strap. Keeps great time & IS fascinating to watch the movement in action (cal. ST-90650,w/ 20 jewels). "Neat-o" (old guy's term) watch. dave: Sorry, Gang! I'm having trouble uploading the six pics I took of this STUHRLING ORIGINAL watch; I could only get two (2) shots. dave 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
