    This is an exceedingly rare watch. Supposedly the "dead beat" seconds feature didn't work well and very few were released. Some commentators say the figure is as low as 17 pieces in existence. Others don't agree.

    Whatever the right answer is, these tend to sell for a lot of money.

    Oddly enough, you'll see a spare dial turn up every so often.

    Watchco was selling NOS dials a while back. Wasn't able to snag one and would probably never be able to get my hands on one anyways! :unsure:

    I stand corrected! It must have been a sight to see at the time since quartz hadn't landed yet.

    Geezus! The Magpie paid that for my 168.009 with the brick bracelet - and mine was in better shape, serviced, and had more gold content.

    Its turn on the Great Cycle Of Preference will come again, sooner or later. Unfortunately, so will skinny ties.

    I hear ya... A skinny tie is a mystery...a bit like skinny jeans. Why do I want to look like I'm wearing jeggings? :D

    I believe the "OM" denotes a solid gold dial.
