It is beat up quite a bit, heavily dinged and scarred but I still wouldnβt mind owning it. My contact at the store finds himself too heavily invested in it and thus itβs priced beyond what I would pay. I still gawk at it when Iβm occasionally visiting the store.
You cannot make anything close to that with modern production. These vintage pieces certainly have their appeal.
A brain killer as you would say Nico ππ Pretty awesome ππ»
That chocolate caramel dial and the hour marker lume is just stunning as well as the case and the hands too, I really don't want to know the price as I'm sure it's eye watering and as they say they just don't make them like that anymore. Marc
One for the dial color.... One on a Forstner .......
