I have bought from this seller before and think they are honest. I would assume that's how hey received it. Was WD stilling giving these things away in the late 90's?

i agree he is a great seller. i have a WD AK with a great deal of engraving on the back. the name. the year...etc. i always look out for these watches. i hve never ever seen one devoid of the presentation onthe back.

I would be stunned if someone redialed an AK (with a safe-driver sign) with the thought of swindling some buyer.
