Before attempting a sale and rebuy I thought I would first explore another OF trade. My collection is a bit Speedmaster heavy currently and there are a few other watches I am interested in adding. I am interested in the following NO DATE watches: *Rolex Explorer: 14270 - From 1989 to mid 90's models with Tritium dial/hands *Rolex OP: 116000 - preferred with 3,6,9 Arabic dial (Blue or silver dial) other OP 36mm or 39mm no date models also considered *JLC Ultra Thin Moon *JLC Ultra Thin Small Seconds *Omega Seamaster 1948, either the standard Arabic 12,3,6,9 or the small seconds model (added with edit) My trade offer(s) Most interested in trading my 145.022-76 -Serviced by LA Watch Works in 2020; full movement service and a touch up to the case. (No laser welding, just recovering from being used to play fetch with a feral cat... or at least thats what it looked like the former owner did with it) -All original to my eyes, a model -76 with later type C3 dial (-76 can be found with both C2 & C3 dials according to MWO) -Very Good correct B2 DNN bezel -Nice hands, minute hand lume is a bit darker than the other 2 to the naked eye -Great looking case, nice and thick, has been lightly refinished as mentioned above (Properly refinished, LAWW is excellent at what they do) -1175 style No 12 flat link bracelet wit 640 end links, date code on clasp is 9-76 -Period correct inner/outer box, boxes came with the watch when I bought it (could be original but who really knows) -EOA applied for, but the serial number falls into the "in certain cases information has not survived, is unreadeable or even missing" category. I will provide that proof of filing from Omega as well as proof of service from LAWW. Pictures! Many more available on request. I can trade up with cash on my side, trade down with cash from you, or straight trade if it works for both of us. I do have other potential Speedy trades; a collectible 145.022-69 or a wearable 105.012-65 are potentially in play as well for the right watch and trade partner. In person trade preferred but can potentially do remote as well. I am in the SF Bay area of California and can travel for the right deal. (Next trip to the EU is in April) I will be as picky if not pickier on the trade partner as I will be on the watch so please do not be offended if I do not choose a new or unknown (to me) member to trade with. Feedback as buyer/seller/trader available both in the public feedback area and multiple additional references available on request. Like many here I do not make all of my transactions public but here are a few: https://omegaforums.net/search/22113483/?q=140dave&o=date&c[node]=10 https://omegaforums.net/threads/pair-of-16-end-links-for-pair-of-516-end-links.155135/ Thank you OF for the platform, and thanks to all members reading this WTT post.
Price for a straight sale is $5300 net to me. Includes all pictured; fully serviced -76 Watch head, 1175/640 bracelet, inner/outer boxes, proof of EOA filing and proof of service. Trade still preferred but open to normal sale as well. Very attractive, serviced, ready to wear.
Bump. Still prefer a trade but open to a sale. Price breakdown for those who wonder; Serviced Watch Head - $4500 ($4200 watch + $300 for serviced & ready to roll) Inner/outer boxes, 1175 bracelet and 640 endlinks - $800 That is how I came to $5300 for the set but as always feel free to make an offer.
