I dont know how thingsare at present but just just a few years ago you could go to a clock and watch fair and buy orphan 18th c. verge watch cocks for a few pounds each. one man i recall had hundreds of them. Someone not all that long ago had the bright idea of marketing them like this, which seems as good a thing as any to do with them, but i'd say the value remainsvery modest. The framing and presentation would have cost more than the actual article.
