    the early El Primero comes in several case styles. Of these, the one for the A 781-782-783-Espada is the most robust - brutal even.

    it suggested armor to Zenith:

    And it does to me too, but of a very brutal, blocky sort - hence "Ned Kelly"

    An A 782 is coming up:

    A bit polished, hour and minute hands relumed, but otherwise correct, the turquoise dialed A 782 is the best of the Ned Kellys IMO. Seller does seem the prickly sort - with an aversion to PayPal and shipping outside of EU. - will need talking to.

    Crickets from the forum....

    1980 Euros/USD 2590 - fair price - only mildly below market. Frankly, seller didn't take as much of a hit as he should have for no PayPal, EU only shipping.

    fairly priced and to absorb additional 4% paypal seems also fair. But one could always offer to pay the paypal fee if feeling insecure

    It was a fair price -

    For $350?!?! Unless that case is empty, Its worth three times that in parts alone. Very nice find!

    I never cease to marvel at the imbeciles who have no idea what something is worth, but insist on listing BIN
