I’m an attic, barn and yard sale treasure hunter.

A few ears ago I picked up a watch for a dollar. It was in a box marked a dollar each. I looked thru them and found I bought. Turned out to be a 14k 1958 Girald Perregany, Sea Hawk model. Best of all, it ran when I wound it up. Made a few bucks on it.
