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

Certainly you could entice someone to complete your fantastic ad (to include all 'preferences') with this beaut (however, this baby on Standy's wrist after he has sent me his beard would be the sweet spot imho) ...

Mama warned me about Australians selling watches.

I bet that, like that Australian ‘selling’ fake Daytonas last year, that this watch is also a fake, probably with a Chinese mechanism inside.

What about a trade with my brand-new sticked Aussie-watch made of a special solid 25 karat Moonshine-Sedna-Canopus gold alloy?

by now @STANDY is the most hated member by everyone with an active FS thread 😁
It’s not his fault that he has the best photos and price for such a coveted watch

I know it’s frowned upon to make critical remarks on a sales thread, but:

this is just a beater Seiko, with better examples had easily on eBay for a few hundred dollars (and will come with a strap at that price).

We would take you seriously were you not obsessed with crystal profiles.

You are not yet tuned into the subtleties of Swamp-Seikos and the rarefied pricing that results so it is best if you sit this one out!

You guys can try all you want but we see what you’re up to. Scheme all you want, but there’s no way the toad is going to replace is guy as the official Omega Forums animal

I wholeheartedly agree, but you’ve shown the wrong one.:whipped:

Let’s leave Dennis out this. It’s already too complicated.

@STANDY I understand that you are trying to get to the larger international market here with going with “,” as decimal separator. On top of that you are trying to build legend around this honest, awesome and magnificent Seiko. You are almost there... If you would include insured and international shipment in this reasonable price offering, extract from this OF thread - print out obviously, fish from the ad, genuine and heavy Australian rock, a bag of red desert Australian soil, I am convinced that this legendary time keeper, who has seen the whole Australia - swamps, bottom of the oceans and deserts would be able to find someone to tell his story. I dare you to describe each instance with the vivid details of your surroundings, that you can remember, when this beautiful piece was honoring your wrist from the time it came into your possession until you decided to let it go for this fantastic price!
