Finally up for sale is this true Gem of a watch.
Worn hard and will give you goosebumps with all the adventure this watch has had.
Your wrist will never be the same.

Want to show those desk diver types at the office who is not a couch potato.... Boom

Snoopyish style blue bezel that everyone is looking for nowadays.

Sold head only ( I know but the NATO means a lot to me so that will be extra and I know it annoyed someone here a few weeks ago )

Runs well but I don’t really tell the time with it as time doesn’t exist where I live.





Picked our first pineapple wearing this watch



Recently Serviced about 5 years ago by @JimInOz ( was free but I have included the extra $400 for a bottle of scotch for him that I never sent him )


Hands have been relumed.
Case has never been polished. Probably eroded by life would be a better term to explain the case
Bezel has a scratch at 40 but very hard to notice
Dial replaced with a NOS one hence the listing as NOS
Crystal is see through


Picture before it was serviced


Again this has been my good luck charm for years resulting in several memorable fish being caught while this was strapped to my wrist


Now for the price. I have taken in all the experiences I have had with this watch and the current price of the Snoopy 3 on chrono 24 to come up with below. ( not forgetting the $400 for the $100 bottle of scotch I owe Jim and postage to Melbourne by a courier that doesn’t drink which is hard to find in Darwin )

$28,400.00US net to me.
Would prefer face to face locally but will ship at buyers expense.

References galore if you need them
Just PM

For a “spoof” thread, this one certainly has legs!

Do you accept payment in FTX?
Who would of thought a watch worth more than the whole of the FTX.

You do know the watch broke... Watch Recon

I dare to recommend an inflation adjustment to the price since it has been a year and a bumpy one.

Nearly swapped it for a few lettuces a few months ago…


“Why does this iceberg lettuce cost $11.99 and how long will Australia’s high vegetable prices last?
A Queensland shopper this week spotted iceberg lettuce selling at a supermarket for $11.99. The photo quickly went viral as evidence of the cost-of-living pressures Australians are facing.”

I assume the pineapple is included in the price which makes it very tempting. Have you approached the Australian National museum? The tax deduction alone should bring in at least another 10 bucks (Australian, not real money)

If you’re quick you might be able to swap it for some of that hallucinogenic spinach that’s currently available 🙄

Well at least the lettuce is lasting longer than Liz Truss

You should donate it to Goodwill. It might actually get $28k in auction. Then, you could deduct it legitimately.

(I get a 30% consultant fee.)

I think if it’s still around in 10 months time it should be in the Movember raffle. I think it would really pull in the high-rollers.
