    Great looking example. That case is as nice as I have seen.:thumbsup:

    Best determined in hand of course, but I do wonder about the hands/lume. Looks very perfect - most of these have darker lume on the dial - more like the one Watchnut shows - and the hour/min hands are often a slightly more green color than the lume. Wouldn't bother me terribly, but if you paid a premium for a mint example, something to be comfortable with.

    With the super sharp case and near perfect appearance, my gut tells me the lume is 100%...patina from being a drawer most of its life.

    Sweet example for sure.

    Amazing example. Still bewildered how people turn these things up - seems I only see them here once people have bought them!

    Dibs btw :)

    The lume seems to be pretty consistent with my A277. It's hard to find good ones nowadays...

    Awesome. Are the Zeniths more plentiful? Are there less movados or am I in the wrong forum?

    Very nice one! Well worth it!

    What brand to prefer is just a matter of taste. Movado = I walk/ run. Zenith = I stand at 12 :)
