Hi,

Many years ago, a friend of mine who dealt in radio equipment,
bought a quantity of these, having seen 'Receivers- Watch' on the boxes.
Well, he thought they were the type of watches used on the likes of the
19 Set and the R107, and after all, the boxes were the right sort of size and weight.
You can imagine his disappointment when he opened one!

Kind regards
Dave
