The DON is one of the cleanest I've ever seen. But the lume is super dirty looking and what is up with that weird blue green funk on the center part of the hands?

I'd offer three G O perpetuals and throw in a manual winding cal 22 in trade. Would that swing a deal?

I'm afraid you'd need a little more chalk on your cue 馃槈

$12-$13K I guess, more if the end links are real 6s.

Edit: to add.... Nice photography though.

To me it looks as though the minute hand broke and has been resoldered and the soldering painted.

That's not a 拢18,500 watch, imho, even in this crazy market.

aaaaaaaaah the problem with text-based coms ... can't catch the dash of sarcasm with a sprinkle of w.t.f. in my voice...

I've bought from these guys in the past and their prices are always a bit high but usually good examples. I bought an enicar sherpa mk IV there for very strong money but it was a mint example. There are a few watches on the site now though where prices seem crazy. that carrera for 35k GBP?????

i think for 18,500 GBP you'd be buying basically the most perfect ed white on earth. that aint' it.

When you ask yourself, "Who is buying pristine DON's for $4000 and why?" It is to put on a watch like this and ask this much for it. 馃槈

is it just me, or has it been polished rather enthusiastically::stirthepot::

Whatcha mean? That鈥檚 all factory finish. The chrono hand however got sprayed with Dr Who鈥檚 secret Tardis clear coat that defies the space-time continuum...
