Well gang, the first of my incoming has arrived.   Lousy picture for a fantastic time piece. Bigger than I thought! Thanks, Blingy! |

I'll have to do some reserach, but I think it is and may even be Archer #001!
Any comments Al or John?

Yep, first sale on the secondary market. Not sure if that's the first one cuz there were at least four of that style made before the cases dried up.
I bow to Al (avalon)'s knowledge on this.
Congrats... great piece that keeps great time. Wear it in excellent health, Al.

I hadn't given it much thought, actually. I built all the watches for the first group of three before I built my own, and I'm quite sure Johnny was the first to get his. So yes, that is the absolute first watch I ever built for sale, so it's numero uno! Congrats Al - hope you enjoy it! |

You know you've arrived when your stuff is on the secondary market - and a collectible to boot! Suh-weet. -Ben |

Hey, if I'd realized it was 001 I'd have never let it go.  Just happy to get an Archer on yet another person's wrist. It will soon be replaced by yet another Archer. |

I'll swap it back to you for a GO Senator Panaorama Date with Moon Phase! Nah, maybe not, it's way too valuable to this community. |
