    Hi guys,

    I'm trying to trim down my collection a bit for something so this must unfortunately go. It's a vintage Baby Ploprof on omega 22mm mesh and I will be sad to see it go.

    Case: Decent condition but it does have the telltale scuffs and scratches of a tool watch which has been used how it's supposed to be used which appeals to me more than a pristine one but your mileage may vary. There's a small pitted bit at the bottom of the watch, next to the bezel. The scratches in the photos look worse than in real life IMO.
    Bezel: Some wearing around the '10', '20' and '40' marks and a couple of the indices but overall pretty good for a tool watch of this age.
    Crown: Good. replaced during recent service.
    Dial: Superb
    Hands: A few marks around the periphery of the lume on the minute hand and a small split in the lume on the second hand but overall good condition
    Movement: Serviced about 6 months ago. It's keeping excellent time for me but I keep it on my wrist or winder so it's always fully wound. It can sometimes wander off the accuracy a bit if you don't fully wind it before putting it on.
    Bracelet: Genuine Omega 22mm mesh purchased about 4 months ago and still in great condition with a few minor scuffs on the seatbelt buckle.

    Happy to ship internationally and also happy to meet in person if in Sydney. Payment by Paypal or bank transfer.

    A couple of references from this forum and my eBay where there's plenty more:

    Bump. I'll accept $1,400 without the bracelet if people are averse to the mesh.

    So many acronyms on OF; what does OHPF mean?
    That "Baby" is a Beauty.
    Pity I didn't spot this thread earlier, I think I would have bitten much earlier, with the mesh (I even have mesh on my Globemaster). C'est la vie.
