Off topic but why is my case more matte than any on here?
Well it’s unpolished and one of the nicest cases I’ve seen. Lovely watch

What do you think about this one sub 10ke.
Does it worth it ?
Considering a relume is it a bad choice? Does it will affect the value?

Let me try to evaluate the parts :
The chrono hand is a replacement.
The DON bezel is original very nice
The dial is original but the lume is gone
The cristal is a replacement


The caseback is polished


The pusher and the crown are a replacement


If we use the 101 table it’s a running model.

What do you think?

Price drop this one is 9k€ now

So that means that we can still find very good deals to do.

I'll wait until I get to see it in the metal, but I think I got lucky. Replacement pushers and crown, but I'll fix that.

Menta has an Ed White on Ebay at the moment with a current bid of $8100 as of this posting.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Om...576397?hash=item2f3231a1cd:g:0j8AAOSw-0FdASxV

The piece has some pluses and minuses. The bezel is attractive IMO with a ghost effect forming. The chrono hand (possibly all the hands?) is a replacement. I think the minute and hour hands are ugly with paint loss and very dark lume. The case looks unpolished but has some wear decreasing the sharpness and dents/dings as you'd expect. The dial is fair I believe with some dark moldy spots forming on indices but in general is attractive. Movement looks clean but dust cover maybe a replacement? Need some more knowledgeable members to chime in on that one. Will probably go above 10k but maybe a nice daily Ed if able to buy at @Spacefruit 's "Running" price for this reference (9k), especially if you have a set of hands. Think the bezel and bracelet offer a good amount of value at that level

Ok the hands, crownsnd pushers are service items, and the lume isn't hugely attractive but with a reasonable DoN bezel and 7912/6 bracelet this looks s decent enough buy.

Thanks for posting hammer price. Missed auction and they are not publishing price it sold for. I guessed it maybe around that area, definitely not the auction estimate of £400 - 600 !

I was bidding up to 5k, but was clearly nowhere close

Did anyone scored this? It needs some work though.

At least it is worthy of a discussion???

Such a clean movement but terrible dial. Possible they were not originally from the same watch?
