    I bought this on a whim and hope I did OK. $900. Any concerns? The MOY is off but some ref's had that? Thanks, Tom

    Well the rotor has bushing issues and is rubbing on the case back. That is a problem

    Do you plan to have is serviced?

    those blue lines make me think redial ...


    :D


    kudos, very nice watch for a guy in the low teens posts :whistling: ...

    that bushing thingy is a blessing in disguise ... so you can get that watch to a competent watchmaker and get the 3.000 mile service ::rimshot::



    and you paid less newbie tax than 95% of all people here ;););)

    My '67 Speedy ran a few quid more. At least I checked with you guys first on this one. And I have to admit to starting on WUS.

    You didn't do too bad :)

    Perhaps a bit too polished (if I were to be very critical), but has some nice details such as the indices with the long lume strips, nice hands and a crown that doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. Have you seen one in the flesh before? If it's the same dial finish as my 14902 Constellation, you are in for a dazzling surprise - that dial is absolutely gorgeous and very difficult to take decent photos of :)
