Tony... your dial and hands appear the same as Skips, but the case, bezel and bracelet ae different.  How many series did they make of them?  Was it so many of each style out of the 500?  Nice approach if so - giving a variety to make you want more than one of a run... :?

Steve,

Yes mine is the older version or original version I guess. Mine is out of production and was replaced by the newer case and bracelet design that Skip has...sorry I did not notice that until now.:)

Here's a little different shot showing the unique bracelet design and I guess the term is a coined edge case???

I guess it depends on the class of watch for my Grails. My 775x watches I guess fit that bill to especially the George J von Burg's And the Chase-Dürer LE of 300 and the RLT38 LE. LOL ;)

I have seen the other case a few times but mostly with the GMT version. But yea both cases are floating about. :cool:

So glad I got it. For it was a sour transaction with the seller. :X Yuk :(

Well I am just a WIS addict big time. Medical retired, no family other than 4 cats and no life out side a few hobbies mostly online besides my watches and a cheap knife collection and Bible collection I maintain. :)

I'm like a kid in a candy store. I see it I want it I get it. LOL :D

You ARE da man Dawg....I love seeing the pics of your new arrivals and envy your collection.  I'm just waiting for you to get tired of one or two and post them in the Sales and Trading section to give us a chance at some of the beauties you seem to always find.
