    I have for sale this sweet 35mm yellow-gold-filled Elite wrist-watch on black leather. I bought this one for its remarkable beauty last year from a watchmaker in HK I know. Due to so many recent purchases, I need to pare down the herd.

    Honestly, I don't mind keeping this one, but it needs to be worn, not coddled!

    The dial has a beautiful patina, slightly darker in the center and around the edges; perfect aging in my eyes!

    The movement is a hand-wind 17j Swiss; I'm not sure what caliber. It's condition appears very good on the timegrapher, gaining under one minute/day, with amplitudes >200.

    The case is in excellent condition, maybe some very minor brassing in corners, but no wear-through any place that I can see. The inside caseback (see pic) says 'Made in Germany', FWIW...

    I'm selling for (edit) well under what I paid, so the first buyer gets it at now $260 USD. PP CONUS addresses only, except for established OF members. Shipping added at cost for those international members.

    PM here for questions, more pictures, or more info.
    Thanks for looking :)
