In Response To: Was this legitimate? ()

Hi,

we have seen some automatic variants...
and handwinding ones with and without serifes,
?? there is a (perfect :-o ) picture from Paul from a handwinding one , without serifes ??
but have not seen a KAF engraving on the case back
the hands of most of them are wabi sabi

seller is perhaps the same guy who sold some before, other account, all with poor pictures...

regards mich

: Can anyone shed a light, please?
