EMM Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Saw this in tomorrow's Treasury auction. What is this? It is absolutely beautiful: Is it repped or reppable? Lots of good stuff in the auction, btw: http://www.treasury.gov/auctions/treasury/gp/ftl_watches.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielv2000 Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Lot's of cool watches for auction there....hmmm confiscated in florida....fancy watches..drug dealers? Gotta be some reps in that pile? i would hope all watches are authenticated before being auctioned off. In Canada, I have been to a few Seized Goods auction. The watches get all the attention. I am very good at starting off the bidding... It's always a neat place to compare gens to whatever piece I wear to the auction. Last time I compared my BK/WM9 Yacht Master and was amazed. If the one they were auctioning off did not have a tag on it, I think the girl handling the jewelry would have taken mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMM Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 According to the auction company, it is a 3599 from the mid 1940s, but they stressed that information had not been "verified," so "do not base any bids or bid ceilings upon that information...not liable if it's wrong...make no representations...blah blah blah.
