BUY IT

oh wait lets be a dick

 

Look at those shitty SEL's!
Lume job looks bad
Case is polished
 

Just on the polished case alone makes its not worth more thank 3k tops.

I love the patina on the dial, but I'm a bit put off my the old lume. Probably not that noticeable from afar, but the minute I spotted it, the worse it became in my head. Still, very nice watch.

There's a serious red flag in the top half of the dial.  It says Rolex.

It's a watch from the 70s; you want an old watch to have old lume I'd have thought!!?!

Becuase you need a spaceview instead to round out your collection of vintage pieces and it will be far cheaper and much smoother sweep.

I’m sorry but it’s one of my all time favourite watches which means you must buy it immediately! Sorry again

Damn, I was hoping someone point out it's a rep or something silly. The best argument yet is that Accutron...

I just got the accutron, and I love it. Wish it were a white gold alpha case, but hey it's still nice. I have gotten more comments on the accutron since I got it a couple of days ago than the rest of my collection combined over the past several years.

I think you can find it for a lower price.

I just posted mine on the gen thread ( I had the dial repainted in black but otherwise it is the same I am pretty sure.

If you dig or go somewhere else than online you might save yourself $500 and it would make the quest a bit more interesting....

But sorry... it is a great great watch. you can wear it up or down always get noticed yet understated.

love this watch

Ha! I'm a picky beast. Something about it doesn't fit with the dial's patina.......I can go and get my eyes re-tested though! 

I'd be twitchy about some of it flaking off the hands if it were to be bumped.

Here is a better accutron for ya and its Uber rare and would still be cheaper than that Rolex and loads more interesting an 18k solid white gold alpha case.
