@abrod520 quick flip for you?

 

seems legit, especially given the logistics for the transaction. someone should pick it up (if it's still available)

 

I thought about it, but given the cost of shipping the Suitcase I'd only be up a couple hundred in profit. I'm hoping it goes to someone who really wants one but previously couldn't quite swing it

 

I have a friend that's been going back and forth on spending the money for his first Omega and he loves the speedy. I passed this along, we'll see if he pulls the trigger. Seems like a no brainer.

 

Darn, I cruised through part of the bay area yesterday, but didn't stop. Too bad.

 

I'd definitely buy it if I was in the area. Let me know if anyone happens to be there.

 

the profit is in the box

 

I’m set to meet with the buyer in 15mins. Already waiting at Starbucks for him

Thanks @jricketts65 for the find! It’s going to a dear friend that just got into watches but has been a space exploration fanatic his whole life!

He couldn’t believe the price when I called him as he’s been going back and forth on spending $3500 for one.

Now to can source him a NASA strap as that’s not included...

 

Is it just me, or is anyone else a bit leery when someone says something like, “scratches easily removed?” I guess if I were selling I’d take the five minutes to clean it up rather than to tell prospective buyers that they can easily do it. This is only about an hour from me and I go through that area often. But I’ll pass.

 

Just saw this. I hope it goes well for you.

 

Thanks! Just completed a smooth and easy transaction. Seller was a fellow WIS and we had a great conversation about watches and the trilogy as I was wearing my Seamaster 1957

 

Congrats! Glad it went well.

 

Thanks! Will update a photo with a wristshot on my friend’s wrist when I give it to him tonight

 

Congrats. Great buy

 

Great deal... congrats!

 

You’re right, he probably could’ve asked for a bit more if he had done so. But I’ll take the discount if i just have to put in 5mins of work

Here’s a before and after some polywatch magic!

 

Friend is happy, mission accomplished!

 

Hey it's me, your other friend you forgot about. I'll have my wishlist ready for you by the weekend. Thanks for being a great pal.

 

Haha I wish I could’ve gifted it to him but I merely brokered the transaction
