    Up for sale is a Bucherer "Anakin Skywalker" chronograph. Bucherer was/is a huge Swiss jewelry chain that has sold various oem watches under their own brand. In this case, it's a rebranded Omega Anakin with a different dial/caseback.
    On to the watch. Worst things first - the crystal gasket has ruined the chapter ring, so it will need a replacement (stock Omega part). Also, there are a number of not so nice strap changing marks on the back of the lugs. Lastly, it has sticky gaskets and has obviously never been serviced, despite all functions working properly. The good news is that the floating (yes, it really floats!) hard shell is in very good condition, with only a few marks (see photos for most significant ones). The handset looks good and has a nice patina along with the hour markers. Also, the blue dial really shines nicely in bright light. Movement is a Lemania 1873 (aka Omega 861). It goes without saying that you should strongly consider servicing this watch. The lugs are 22mm. I can also throw in an Omega 22mm mesh for an additional $290 (only as a group, not for sale individually). Sorry for the less than stellar photos, it's very shiny and picks up smudges/dust easily.
    $1950 including PayPal fees and U.S. Insured shipping. International would be +$50 due too high insurance costs. Thanks for looking!
