    no it's in my local AD.

    I live in miami so when I travel from the UK to MIA I always take advantage of the duty free. Just ask for a duty free claim form, go to heathrow and claim the cash back @ circa 16.6%.

    It is in nice condition, very minimal scratch. Titanium is easier to scratch than SS and I heard is more difficult to polish evenly.
    The speedy style bracelet has modern look compare to Bond style. You wouldn't believe how light this watch feel in your wrist. I really love mine.
    Unfortunately many people prefer shinier look of SS. So while the MSRP from factory is higher than SS and the fact it is rarer , second hand market price is just the same or only slightly higher than SS blue electric. It is interesting to see how much this will end.

    And for gold fans, one of a limited edition of 50 watches released in 2000 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Apollo-Soyuz mission. Might be worth an offer, as the price is sky high and probably about 30% more than it should be.

    It goes without saying that care needs to be exercised in bidding on such a limited edition watch that has such blurry pics and a zero starting price. Possible bargain or possible disaster... More pics are definitely needed.

    By the way, these watches came on either a leather strap or a matching 18 k gold bracelet. The bracelet on this example is not gold, it is a standard bracelet from 1999/2000. The insurance valuation he shows from 2008 was either overoptimistic or was pricing in a gold bracelet that is no longer present - or both.

    EDIT - actually his valuation says the bracelet is a 1498, which wasn't used after 1998. This watch was first released in 2000. And the clasp on the bracelet he pictures is not the clasp for a 1498, its a style that was phased out around 2000 or so. So there is no way the bracelet is original to the watch and the bracelet may not even be complete, assuming its the same one from the valuation. Also, doesn't he have a more recent valuation ? Lots of questions on this one to be answered before gambling with a big chunk of money.

    Yes, I dont believe many people would advertise a rare and expensive watch with such a poor advert. Also the seller hasnt sold anything for a long time
