    Wow, condition is stunning. Great catch! You rarely see them with such a clean and attractive dial. And the case is not too shabby either.

    Well done! I am happy for you but watch out.
    Maybe some tritium from the minute hand is free and can damage the mechanism (pay attention to the "tachimetre" print).
    Take your beautiful El Primero to your watchmaker for cleaning and enjoy it.

    Great example of A386, everything looks in good shape and original !! It looks to be a mk2 or mk3. Camel calf strap goes pretty well with it....

    Please send other pics

    Question, are the black marks on the hands normal and original for this model? Hour hand mark seems slightly ovalled on long sides. Just wondering. Very nice watch.

    @plexyforever what do you mean by paying attention to the tachymeter print ?
