i am off to a beach with my family over Christmas. Yes lucky me.

Anyone want to sell me an interesting nearly new diver, $300-500?

Something you thought really cool when you bought it and now don't really need.

I am truly hoping to take advantage of your post purchase blues.

Delivery to continental USA.

 

That's on my mind.
Sometimes people have one lying around.....
I have thi aversion to buying new!

 

You can get one AND an extra President's style bracelet for around $200 new! $200 is nothing in this hobby - a service, a new crystal & strap, a watch winder..... plenty of things cost the same or more than a Seiko SKX007 or 009. Buy new and you won't have to worry about a service for years! It's worth the small difference from buying it used.

 

I was the same not that long ago. Hard buying something new just for the heck....
Ended up getting a freebie with a few watches and is getting new hands, dial and a service now.
Feels like a real watch now with a spa treatment. (even though its the beater from beatsville)

Is a good place to buy a new one in my link below from Northernman

Hi!
Bought from these guys before. Fast delivery and no frills.
May I suggest this one: http://www.creationwatches.com/prod...007j-skx007-200m-made-in-japan-watch-837.html

Or if you want to go really cheap then this one:

Cheers!

 

But what's wrong with a Ploprof 600 166.077? Perfect beach wear imo!

 

USD 6 K if shit happens to vintage gasket (or any other reason) wrong........
I would not use more than 20 years old watch near water. Period.

 

I have an old Seiko modded watch you can have. The second hand fell off but otherwise it is pristine. Regards. Bill

 

Beach in Thailand you could have a new Rolex everyday
one or two would last the whole day but if not there will be another guy on the beach within 5min with a new heap for you to pick from
