    Want one of these so bad but it's hard to stomach the $21.5K price, especially when I only paid $5.5K for this...

    Coming to terms with the fact that I might not get to own an A386 is a hard pill to swallow!:(

    The case is a mark 2 and not a mark 1.

    Thats beautiful, and at the current deltas in pricing, is much more attractive!

    Thanks for the compliment, but what really kills me is the fact that I had the chance to buy one of these A386s about four years ago at a small fraction of this price. I just didn't know enough about them to move on it, or so I though!:rolleyes:

    Isn't the ring on the crown a little bit too centered?

    Keep me honest folks: replacement crown, mk1 caseback on mk2 case, polished case. I'm willing to pay for a mk1 but would pass on this one

    Pushers look different! Upper one is slightly thiner than lower one. (Or maybe it is due to angel of photo..)

    I think it's an optical effect

    Thank goodness I like gold watches better. With that kind of money I'll take 2 G381 please. Or maybe a solid gold Movado Astronic (basically a Luna luxe) and change...

    Yes, appears so. Original crown should be a big nato star. Similar to this:

    Well I respectfully disagree with that. :)
