In seriousness though, I did win the auction and this is headed my way. The translation was just a bit odd.

Well, you can't be in the auction, because the auction comes from within. Congrats!

Hey cool recently got one myself. Got it here on the forum. Someone actually noticed and commented on the watch which has now happened 2x to me in the past 6-7 years. You will really like it.

Welcome to the club! Those look great on a stingray strap BTW.

Thanks 😀. The photos were a bit over-exposed, so difficult to judge the condition of the case. Hopefully it's not over-polished.

The condition of the back is the key for me.

That's a nice set -- they look super clean. I'm debating whether to go after the original tank-tread bracelet. It looks good on that simple black strap as well.

Yeah, I fear the etching on mine is pretty worn down. We'll see what shows up. 😀

I currently have that one on a gray Nubuck from Tuns, which looks great.

That’s really good. Seems like dark gray and black straps work well with this dial.
