·Wow that is a nice looking watch. Well done! It "feels" old but it is in great condition. How old is it and what is the reference number if you don't mind me asking?
Please consider donating to help offset our high running costs.
In Sydney at least, there's a monthly antiques fair with some watch dealers/desks. Decent looking Seikos (6138s and 6139s are a huge draw,) Omegas, Tudors, Rolexes, for anywhere between $300-$1500AUD. I know someone who was selling an Auricoste Type 20 and a Lemania single pusher for about $4000AUD.
Is this the guy at Wenthworth Park?
One of the guys, I've talked with two to three of them...you go as well @Drechristian?
Any other suggestion on which markets to go?Rozelle Collector's Markets have a couple of stalls; some stall runners only appear every so often. Mostly lower end/less known brands, though there can be the odd bargain to be had there. Have picked up Tissot, Fortis, and Cymas there. Condition may not be the best, however that's the fun of the hunt 😀
Ah really, will definitely go there this Sunday after brunch at Blackwattle Bay!
Nice t17...and Syrte maybe if you wore a name tag with a screen name they would probably end up asking you questions. I have always enjoyed your posts on one of other shared forums..

Elsewhere in my local market, there's a very lonely, 9 carat gilt edged tank shaped Tudor that still hasn't been sold for $295...I'll try to post a picture sometime next week.
Just displaying my complete lack of knowledge here, but where is that fair?
