So @pnwyankee, did you decide which of the two to pick?

The Polaris was the overwhelming favorite and that wasn't a big surprise as I have coveted that particular watch in Blue for some time.
Now it is a matter of figuring out some creative way to rationalize such an expensive purchase.
Best bet is to find somebody willing to trade for something I already own as a partial payment.

Not sure how the prices will behave in the future, but i see some sweet deals on those blue dial Polaris with steel bracelets (~6k). So maybe the right time.. Good luck figuring out! 😉

i am not affiliated with the seller. this is a german second hand market plattform.

https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s...s-41mm-neu-und-ungetragen/2106176850-156-2234

i wrote the seller a couple of times, asking if he would sell me the SS bracelet separately, but he wont do that.
his asking price is 6150,-EUR, but since the ad is already a long time online, i was thinking one could mabe make him an offer.

Edit: oh i see, it says only pick up, so i guess he doesnt want to ship. well just in case you are located in Europe/Germany, maybe you can work something out.

Edit 2:
Another one on chrono from Switzerland, under 6k,-EUR

I almost feel tempted to pick up another one 🤦 😁
