    From my pov it does look quite legit - but I'm not always the sharpest tool in the shack ;o)

    Any opinons welcome, also any historic information (brochures, hist.MRSP, etc...)

    thx a million,
    Al

    Watch is legit. The line was called Class 6. I would estimate it's from 1996 or 1997. The Class 6s in 1995 still had the inverse star on the dial and said "Automatic 680" in script.

    Here's a shot from the 1997 catalog when it would have set you back £1,745.
