Bedankt voor de informatie en het positieve commentaar. Ik heb geen idee waarom de klok op het verkeerde adres is aangekomen. Ik kopieer het adres altijd van Catawiki. Waarschijnlijk heeft het koeriersbedrijf een fout gemaakt. Sorry voor het ongemak!

Zuvorkommende Abwicklung, Lot wie beschrieben, alles Bestens
