Oscar, He wanted to sell it so he could buy a custom watchno.gif, the man knows nothing about watches, he has the reciept that he paid 5K for it..I could'nt do that to him he saw my Omega 1 day & my Doxa so he calls them custom watches---I'm too honest of a person sometimes---He has the auto 1 not the chrono, but I'm positive, he said he had the other version as well(the chrono)the "the ones w/ the circles on the dial" is how he described it...

my love.gifcool.gifmy love.gif

I have a customer that has 1 of these said hes looking to get 250.00 , I looked them up & they sell for around 1,20O$ used. I was honest about it & told him he should keep it, but 4 the life of me I don't know why I didnt take advantage of the deal presented to me......I LOVE THIS PIECEwowzer.gifcan you show more angles PLEASE
buy it for $250. William...these went for an average of $700.-$900. a few years ago and with inflation $1200. sounds about average now imo....$1800.-$2100...hmmmm,maybe in the perfect world but I wouldn't hold my breath.no.gif
..weren't you selling yours for $750. a while back Bill?
...it's a fine watch and getting one at a bargain is even better imho...ThumbsUp02.gif


 

Chrono24.com  has a ton of them ranging from 1200-1400 right now from the Netherlands

because you have knowledge of watches does not make you dishonest for accepting a deal from someone who is comfortable at selling a watch lower, than what a forum knowledgeable WIS would consider selling the same watch for...maybe it's beat, non WIS are known to not keep their watches as pristine as we would...the Japy would be more of a "custom" watch imo.
...consider it a needle in the haystack Buddy...we are all ISO one of those,and wouldn't think twice about jumping on 1 if it appeared!

being upfront is a good thing William......seems this guy knew what he paid and offered it up at what you knew was a sweet deal..don't beat yourself up about it...hind sight is 20/20.ThumbsUp02.gif

Personally, I prefer the 3 hand auto version, just something about the chrono case pushers design that seems akward to me.. no symetry... this one Bill is showing really looks great!!
