Did I show my most recent acquisition here already? 馃榿
2nd gen Super Kontiki with rare dotted bezel in very fair condition. Dial and hands are insanely perfect.

I'd trade a dibs for a dibs, but I fear this is way out of my range 馃榾

The boyfriend watch thing

Hi, does anyone have information on this model?
More specifically, I suspect the bezel to be 18K gold. Can anyone confirm?

This just arrived. An interesting no-lume variant with a gray dial. This movement advances the date by pulling out the crown, which is kind of fun but always makes me a little nervous. Heavy crazing on the original signed crystal. Not sure what I'm going to do with this yet.

That's a stunner, congratulations! I would definitely look out for a replacement crystal.

Sold to the room in Hamburg at imo a decent price. I hope it doesn't come back to the market with a huge dealer mark-up, but I would love to see it on OF sometime.
For reference, what'd it go for?

yeah, I will probably replace the crystal if I keep it. But it鈥檚 fun to see something so untouched after 60 years.

That is a mucho cool one, Sir! Congrats... I must say it is one of the coolest signed crystal too!

I think I will part from my Eterna Matic in January as I have had too many incomings. And it is getting less wrist time.

Someone will hopefully enjoy it more
