    Saw these at a dealer today I believe many find reputable. Haven't seen movements yet, but all are 321s. All are priced between $6500 and $7500.

    Opinions welcome! Pros, cons, hate 'em all, bring it on...

    Bottom one is a mess. Replacement bezel and hands, lume is disgusting. Case has had a lot of work.

    First one has the nicest dial and hands.

    Second one has the best bezel.

    Last one has replacement bezel and hands, and the dial is not great.

    I'd go with the first. Depending on the ref though, prices might be a bit high.

    ...and you need to see the movements before you buy.

    2nd and 3rd are not so good looking. Most of the value is in the dial, so if all else is correct I would go with the first.

    Not sure the third one even has a new bezel. Looks fake to me.

    Edit: flicking through Moonwatch only tonight, I noticed that the bezel on the third is actually correct with the small font and no accent. Used for a few years in the 90's.

    Thanks, I passed on all 3. I liked the first but think I can do better...

    Really appreciate the guidance here. Still learning a lot.

    No. 1 just looks nicer. Good dial, hands are a nice colour and the case looks pretty sharp to me.
    If they're all around the same price then has to be 1.
