Bought this 18k yellow gold Nomos Tangente.
This model in YG is not produced since the early 2000's.
Current golden Nomos are now out of reach for me (12k+€). This Tangente was bought for a fraction of this price and is new / unworn (stayed in its box since the end of the 1990s).
I love its classy and understated look.

I can well imagine 😀
Since you're Swedish, the translation "The first self-winding watch with bearings" will be for the benefit of the rest of the forum 😉

No worries. I was never accused of tact. Spend that $200 on a worthy watch - we'll even help vet the candidates.
Seller offered to cancel transaction on the GUB after I questioned the caseback. I accepted.

I also bought these little bits and pieces from the land of accessories in the last few days:
A very lightly used Diplomat CF 6 Watch box and a grouping of spring pins and buckles that I grabbed mostly for the 2 Stowa buckles (plus, I can always use more spring pins).

And a couple of OEM Omega straps... My plan for the 22MM PO Brown Croc is actually to put it on my GP 176.007. Any guidance on a GP aftermarket deployment buckle that people have a positive experience with/works well with the OEM PO deployment straps is greatly appreciated, otherwise I'll just spring for the OEM deployment buckle in SS and have it match the 176.007 caseback. Not sure what I'm doing yet with the 18MM VEPA Black w/White Stich . (The Seller of the straps also threw in the wavy movement retention spring that I need to keep the movement in place in my 176.007!)

You are now officially certified kicked out of the DIBS-list on mine! 😀 Congratulations on a fine example.

A house, which has made the bride very happy. Has been an interesting and at times frustrating excercise as I am in Saudi and she and the house in Saigon. With the help of friends all is good now and hopefully I will get back in December to see in the flesh.

Ahh, the joys of home ownership. I am looking forward to taking 15 or so pickup loads of leaves to the recycle center this fall. The joy.
