Interestingly perhaps sensing something was amiss with the stated description the letterhead that accompanies link the watch indicates Crichton may not have held on to the watch for very long. One week after he purchased the watch in December 1995 the Montbrillant link appears to have been shipped from Crichton to Sol Meller of Feldmar Watch Co. in Los Angeles with a written note indicating a link trade of some kind for store credit.
