What it is
{"overview":"The Steineck ABC is a subminiature camera made in the form of a wristwatch, produced in West Germany in the late 1940s. With so few data points, today's value depends heavily on completeness, condition and whether the original case and instructions are present, and recent comparable hammer prices would be needed to confirm what one sells for now.","buying_guide":"Inspect the wristband and lugs, the shutter action, and the lens for haze or fungus, as service support for these subminiatures is effectively non-existent and spares must be cannibalised from donor bodies.
