Hello all,

Is this another deluxe?

Looks in a lot better condition than the last one. Not too polished.

The pie pan doesn't seem as defined as in the earlier version, don't think I've seen one quite like this before. Interested to see what people think the value is compared to the other one I posted a few days ago.

Thanks in advance.

Carl

 

Is that a non pie pan dial painter to look like a pie pan?

 

I know what you mean. I thought it was domed initially and started to type this post with the title "non pie pan de luxe" originally. But I am pretty sure it's just that the facets going between the batons rather than arrowhead markers are not as pronounced and the gold on gold doesn't help either.

I've since done a bit of a search and found the same dial on the web but in a different case so I think it's ok. I'll now, no doubt, be corrected

 

i think it is genuine. my view is reasonable condition, but probably wouldn't pass muster for any of our moderators to want it! (which means it is perfect for plebs like us). I can see from that one photo there is still some sharpness to the bezel and lugs.

 

Looks correct to me. It's an earlier version of the 168.005 or the previous reference 14.xxx (forget the exact number) with onyx inserts in the markers.

 

Why you hold this poor example in your collection?.........pass to me, please.....

 

Don't even try it. I've had dibs on that for years and it isn't going anywhere. Sweet watch, eh?

 

............ not only sweet.........fabulous.......

 

I've asked for some more photos so we'll see what we get.

I am thinking of buying. What would be a reasonable price? The last one I asked about the consensus was about $3000. How does this compare given that the other was earlier and this one seems in better condition?

Thanks.

 

I think you're in the ballpark depending on the condition after you see more pictures.

 

Finally received higher res pictures. Any opinions?

Thanks again.
