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

$400 knocked off this beauty

I will also throw in one of those fandangled NATOs the Baristas wear at the local mung bean cafe.

I'm so close to pulling the trigger on this baby, but I couldn't bring myself to wear it. Straight to the safety deposit box it would go.

I understand you sell your memories with it. Would you grant a discount if I agree to purchase memories no older than my date of birth? Including the memories of drinking a $400 bottle of scotch however.
I will still need to check reference.

From your comment it sounds like I would have to convert it to Quartz 😒

Hold your nerve, seller has reduced his price once after just 12 days and added in a rare ‘Faberge Egg’ design nato (he does not seem to recognise the rarity of these!) I have no doubt the price will drop further.
Best of Luck.

I think I speak for many Brits when I say that we’re really hurting over importing high value timepieces because we now have to pay VAT and import duty on anything we buy from abroad.

Perhaps it would help someone in the U.K. to pull the trigger on this beauty if you were willing to declare it as a piece of junk with a value of under £5?

Jeez Andy!
😲
What are you doing popping off bezels with a fishing knife!

And you've just voided your warranty too!

Sorry I don’t post to countries that have withdrawn from the EU due to regulation instabilities and political uncertainties.

Seems I've hit the jackpot, NL is still in the EU, here's my picture of payment. And to make it interesting I'm offering you unrestricted access for a visit to your ancestoral home.

Are you in my favourite coffee shop in Den Haag again “the dizzy duck” 😉


Sorry to disappoint you, but it’s just another trick of souvenir sellers to make money on hype. Such an object is just a Bitcoin symbol that you can buy online for some $1-2. These coins are made of plastic or metal and are not connected to the Bitcoin company in any way. Bitcoin coin has no other value except for purely aesthetic.

It has also nothing to do with Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, and other forks.

Amen to that
