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

Someone asked for a proof of life picture.




Every time I see one of these it feels like a kidnapping request before a ransom is paid.....

I'm still waiting for payment for that service mate!

In case single malt is hard to come by in Darwin, this will be OK.

Is this a good investment?

Not really. It hasn't been serviced for five years!

But if you buy it I'll service it for a reasonable remuneration (see above), therefore increasing the value immensely.

To whomever manages to fund this gem right now; I am calling DIBS.

If Bitcoin keeps rising at its current rate, I can afford it shortly. 😀

I didn’t notice this has the sexy petit lollipop, I only thought that was available on the previous model which develops a lovely pumpkin-spice latte Lume with triple phantom bezel. Those were only available during the second week of March in 1982- I have the only 4 made of those (they are all identical and the lume matches across all according to my Pantone charts) which I bought from Hondinkee . I had to take a second on my house but they said it was a rock solid investment- and threw in a travel clock and John Mayer G-Shock. Their experts verified that those were the only 4 ever made according to what they found on eBay coming from the Philippines that week.
So this is a far rarer mode apparently with the mid-summer night swamp lume, moonshadow crater bezel and sexy petit lollipop.
You all must be blind or stupid to have not bought this yet!

you’ve still got one to sell and there’s always dialysis.
