Jack,

Thank you for this feedback.
I understood well that this Gruen "Chrono-Timer" is both:
- rare (few copies because produced for 2 or 3 years).
- can be reliable (when not in good hands).
- despite this, the parts can be found quite easily.

An avant-garde object during its release, with technology quickly outpaced by its competitors, quite rare, and of which 1 in 2 are very poorly maintained and therefore does not work...
It’s the kind of concept that attracts me, because it’s all that makes its beauty...

I will be curious to have Gary’s feedback ;-)

Happy Sunday.
