Finally Found My Own "Holy Grail" Accessory

[Tomasso]

It's essentially a wrist watch encased in a circular alligator skin 'biscuit' frame.

Thanks, now I have another order for Bea.:eusa_doh:

Seriously though, she is probably the most resourceful leather artisan in America. She has both the skill and the skins; something rare anywhere.

Thanks Marc!

Yes, congratulations on the find, Marc, and thanks for sharing with us. That's a great accessory, and you did a nice job of cleaning it back to life. I bet it will bring some good conversations.
