I hit a yard sale and asked if they had watches. The guy said wait a second and went in the house and brought out a box of watches. He said it was his Dad's and he would want someone to have it that appreciated watches and gave me the box for free. Very kind. The best was this NOS 1970 Bulova Accutron 300. Gorgeous blue dial with crisp case and original strap and case. The original sticker is on the back. I did not want to open the case as the battery was already removed and I did not want to scratch the case. There was a note that he bought this from a jeweler in 2001 as an NOS. I believe this is the first of this model for the database.
I tried the same thing with my neighbour and he came back with a shotgun!!
That's just too cool......now you have to give back to the universe :-)
Congrats! Right place at the right time.
