    Superb condition but too high asking price. I would like the brick bracelet included with that price.

    Am I missing something or have a blind spot? Is there no caliber number under the Ω symbol on that plate?

    I've got a few that are blank on that lower plate but marked on the upper, like this 501

    I took a look at the listing. Unless one if planning to travel to Bahrain with lots of UK sterling in their pocket, there are way too many conditions and disclaimers there for my taste.

    To Mr. Seller, if you want to do a true "as-is" auction, then go to AQ or Sotheby's and pay your 25% commission.

    You don't get to have your cake and eat it, too.

    That's my dream bucket list watch that I aspire to own one day (hint hint).
    I guess k-star is no longer a member?
    would have loved to see the original thread where he unloaded the Luxe's!

    Me too - but I want to get it before I get anywhere near the bucket.


    I don't think he ever was.

    At the risk of exposing myself as a philistine, I don't care for the hooded lugs. :whistling:

    That's the attitude :thumbsup: . One less competitor :D
    Anyway, what (or which watches) do you care?

    Not a big fan of those either, don't think I'll ever own one...but I can see the attraction.

    Seller has been trying to sell this one for maybe 2 years now. I am sure we've discussed the watch in some much earlier threads here.

    Ah I remember now ......the expensive Bahrain Grand Luxe :) . Certainly his pricing make it a candidate for our wishful thinking price thread.

    To my (admittedly) untrained eye, it does appear to be an example though....;)

    Guadeloupe seller, with a relatively low frequency of sale and a negative and a neutral amongst the most recent.... a real dirty harry transaction. "Do you feel lucky... punk?". It literally feels like he's daring someone to put in a bid.
