TLDR: Not the best-written story on a thrift shop find in which they describe it as a white whale, and that the references is not determinable...


Lets play guess the real value lol...

They can't even get the exchange rate right. USD4 = AUD6 as of this morning.

This is maybe a USD400 watch.

If you want to see an outstanding Goodwill bargain, look here.

It looks like a ref 166.002, the prices estimated here are on the money. Nice enough daily wear watch but the best feature of those is that they’re excellent value at at a bit over the cost of a MoonSwatch
