Grail Incoming

Came with one AP; going back with 2.

Such piece has been my grail one for quite sometime now. It's the time now as I'm a 33 years old transparent guy with nerves of steel, but I wish I was 8 years older, and I love bicycles.

Cryptic yes, and I'll have to agree with samuelhuntington, probably 41mm steel Openworked. Double balance wheel (?bicycle) and/or lots of gears visible. Congrats whatever it may be!

Perhaps also consider changing user name to "The Riddler".
Congrats on the incoming.

Think he meant: Grail Box Incoming

They look great, but probably wear a little big.

A watch that came out 41 years ago (33 plus 8?), two (balance) wheels, open faced, and in steel? Would it, by any chance, begin with a 'T' and end with an 'imex'?

Well, whatever is in there, congrats!

Haha. I'm surprised it took you guys quite a few posts to figure out! Lol

Yes it's the 15407. Haven't had a chance to adjust it yet; but here it is.
