Wow Matej, that sure is a beauty! I've checkec the links from ebay and there's something I don't quite understand in the first one where the seller is saying that the crystal and the dial are "replacement". What does that mean? Anything else that we need to be careful about when buying these?

 

Thank you Aleš ! :)

 

yeah as these are 40 years old watches, most of them had patina on the dial and hands, so they replaced them. So I would recommend getting the original dial and hands, they look better and they are better quality :) yeah best to read description :) also best to get serviced movements, as it is hard to find parts for these also,

 

 

Thanks for the explanation :thumbsup2: I'll do my homework and get me one of these, I've always loved the bullheads. Love the last one from Omega, but it's way out of my league..so one of these will be just fine. And I know all about buying grandpa watches, I hear that all the time :) Why buy these ugly old fart watches with all those lovely fashionable Diesel and Police watches?! I guess I can never explain that to her in a way she could actually understand.. :frusty:

should be 38mm x 44mm or something like that

 

Hi Matej

 

Found one seller that says 36mm, a lady's version ? the one you should have bought for St Valentine...

Imagine : Gd Pa & Gd Ma are going out 4 dinner :-D

 

Love those watches, must found one for myself.....but I'm afraid 36mm will be too small for my wrist :-(

best is like 40mm & up

 

Let us know once received....

Although it looks beautiful, it would look small on me so I will stop my hunt after one.

Congrats on a beautiful watch Kenny!
