My big brother asked me to help buy back a 5712 gold watch. When I opened it up, I found it had been filled with counterweight blocks [tears of laughter]. The parts circled in the picture are copper counterweights. Don’t try to get a bargain when buying a watch – the risk of stepping into a pit is pretty high.
