    I saw it, put in an offer, and before he had responded (20 min) it had sold.

    This particular one? No.
    The 2500s, yes. Very limited numbers, put out for omegas centenary. Uses the 30.10, but a chronometer, I've read Desmond's blog!

    Yup 18k rose gold. An eccentricity of omega to actually use a yellow gold dial on these rose gold cases for the centenary but its legit. And of course there's the 18k buckle and the tip top condition of the watch.

    I think it was around that - it was like £1900.

    So basically Mike scored a PINK gold 2500 with the 18ct buckle for $75 more than I got my Centenary last month. I scored. Mike got a hat trick.

    Now that it is sold it is listed as $3995?

    My issue - why I just didn't BIN at $2995 - was the lack of movement photos. Otherwise I would have been in like Flynn

    This thread makes me want to take out mine from the safe and wear it. Wish I had gotten mine for that price!

    I think I'll join you Kyle.

    Does anybody realize how many tasty gold cased bumpers are owned by members here? It's seriously amazing if you ever took the time to keep count.

    Does this one have a 333 inside? My observation is that the pink gold 2500s with yellow gold dials had the 30.10 JUB movement while those with pink gold dials like this one looks to have had the 333 suggesting later production.

    Your observations are still holding true, this does have a 333.

    For me a small risk - very hard to find nice rose gold centenary watches and that 18k buckle is harder to find still. It looks to me to be the original buckle for the watch.
