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

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.

not to mention: this is a watch that cries out for a mustache.

An absolute steal at this price. Cannot believe this hasn't moved yet.
Maybe the fish photo is behind it -- can you add provenance about the various fish caught whilst wearing this exquisite piece: fish heads, skeletons, anything, hell - a fin or two?

It’ll sell this year, feel it in my water.

If this watches provenance could be traced back to Archie-Luxury, I’ll take it …

I am sure he will write a paragraph for a modest fee.

Due to recent lunar hype....

Only answering PMs about a sale for this beauty on a full moon.

Not a bad strategy, as Rolex has proven, to make your watch harder for people to obtain. You’ll drive up demand for certain.

I’m actually starting to have my doubts about the provenance of this watch. I think it may actually be stolen government property and I wouldn’t touch it with a 39 and a half foot pole. You should probably remove this listing before the authorities come for you.

Which reminds me, Standy, can you update me on where I am on the waiting list for this?

I love all the Casios and Timexes you sold me, not that they should influence you or move me up the list. 😁

Hopeful people will drop off the list while the dollar is still strong.

My Seiko AD says there no way I’m moving up on the list for one of these Aussie Editions unless I spend > $15k on PM Citizens like this first.

I don’t play AD games. I also don’t pay gray market premiums. I’ll stick with Michael Kors.

I thought you had to say his name three times before he appeared?

Once is enough when you're from Golden, Colorado.

If it is still available in summer, I might pick it up during the Woman’s WC.

Famous for Rocky Flats site but also as the residence place of the eminent scientist Robert D. Shannon 🥰.
