Description:
I bought this Continental Silenta from a well-known seller in Poland in February, 2023, received it in May 2023. The decal on the paper table reads "Continental," which allowed me to trace it back to a seller in Dresden, Germany. As a fellow collector noted, if you look closely at the decal, you can see traces of the old "N" under the new "O," so it must have been refurbished at some point, even though it is exceptional shape and functional condition.
