Alas, what have we come to? No Purdeys, Bosses, or even Sw's (grossly over-rated). I am happy enough with good Yankee stuff and have no worries about what I've left behind: good kids with a sense of value and a love of country. Chopper

With Durs on the wall plus enamel on gold Patek Philippe of bit later vintage in thy pocket, and one of you boys could be in a chase for the prize!

Like they say, if well taken care of those great ones just don't seem to putter out. I would not mind hanging it up on the wall in my wine cellar (humidity and temp is well controlled) where the "old decoys swim"!
