I was waiting for you to put "the last nail in the coffin". No deal with this one. I feel badly because I'm chasing a good/great 146 but this one is not what I want. Thank you very much for your expertize. Cheers, Nilo

I´m sorry Nilo.... Imagine match a bracelet with this gray dial..... That is your last nail.... bury it.... [ ] ´s..........
Thanks Mac ...
Vintages ... Seems not to be my cup of tea. But I hear that there will be a NOS Movado Zenith "on the block" on Saturday. "I shall return". Cheers, Nilo
This, I think is a catch.....
