Thanks Alex. I’m in Germany, so how it got here is anybody’s guess.   I’ve written to the golf club asking for more info on Alice Goss, awaiting an answer…

It's wonderful to these watches in their original condition and I'm loving the script used for the engraving. I'm curious what the Burlington Country Club would make of this watch. They might make you an offer you can't refuse.
