    But this is the second one that's had that black ring sort of bubbling around the bezel, I don't even know what that is but it looks terrible

    I'm still completely kicking myself for NOT buying that NOS condition Anakin with the purple snot on the back that went for less than anyone expected last year...

    When I finally get down under, remind me to kick you for that too. Evan had his chance today to smack me upside the head for selling my first Centenary but he passed.

    And IMO these Anakins are the epitome of late 60's / 70's chronograph style. :thumbsup:

    I don't like the style of the anakin and I regret not buying that one!. The ones that got away will haunt you!

    They're completely and utterly vulgar and that's what makes them so brilliant

    That dial would bug me something fierce, but do agree you should be kicked for the other one. Gosh there is so much to do in Australia ;)

    Watched 2 of them sell in the last 6 or 7 years - one with box & papers. I think that went for almost $11k.

    I hit you pretty hard when you sold that one. :whipped: But you made up for it the second time around. You just have a very short memory.

    And that's a good thing,

    Pffft, I've been hit in the head so many times I don't feel it now. Sort of like once you get eaten by green head flies down the Jersey shore you don't feel mosquito bites nymore.
