Alan32 836 Posted December 7, 2022 Was scrolling through Ebay and found this Aquaracer , new with tags on sale for less than 1/2 price the price of the standard used watch. bought it with half the expectation it was a high quality rep. But it's the real deal, should I feel guilty that the lady who sold it didn't know its' real value? 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the guilt gets the best of you then I’ll have it..! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OLDBLOKE74 6,848 Posted December 7, 2022 A grail watch for me - latest member of the family Bumper movements from the 1950s are becoming rarer and the solid gold versions with untouched dials are the ones sought after by collectors. This one is an American 14k case - the movements were shipped without cases because import tax on gold was huge in the 1950s . This one will definitely be worn - not locked away in a a display box 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan32 836 Posted December 8, 2022 My splurge of new watches continues this is the Quartz PRX which I bought just before I stumbled over a great deal on the Auto , so one or T'other will be in M2M soon depending which one is the better value ( Not impressed with the "Quick release" you need the fingers of a 5 year old to actually work it!) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan32 836 Posted December 12, 2022 Amongst the plethora of watches I bought in the last month are this trio of PRX,s one quartz and two Autos, two of which will be sold on to possible fund the chrono version. 4 hours ago, RussP said: Nice one! Is that an enamel dial? and where did you source the watch? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brang1 4,015 Posted December 12, 2022 More than a little impressed with this Seiko- the dial colour is a killer and the bezel is stunning- changes colour depending on the angle - a ripper 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
