That is WAY cool, I want that watch but I know I can't afford it.

@txlabman - I say sell off some of your engines and buy the watch ;-)

It is amazing that the Stalag  commandant didn't confiscate it for himself, no one could have stopped him, he must have been a man of character & honor & respect. I am in awe !
