Skr 34000 Will be my guess...... Kind regards. Achim
That’s right at US$4,000. Good price for a unicorn.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Remember to factor in a 22,5% fee to the auction house....

Stay away folks, so I can get it cheap... 😀

Wow this watch is more than 70 years old.

Curious on the hammer prize - won't be cheap but this is a real collectors pic.

Any idea what’s going on with the hands?
Just tarnish or tarnish and some scratches on the minute hand?
Also, looks like 2 tiny, but annoying oil marks near the sub dial.

About $8,648 USD. A very fair price for this. I would have paid more.

Indeed a very fair price. If I hadn't just made an acquisition I probably would've gone for it myself.
In any case, I can't help but imagine what this would have gone for if it was a full NOS set (box and papers). At least $10k to $20k?

Fantastic watch but a very strong price for a non engraved caseback centenary.

I think this is the one instance where the sticker trumps the engraving. Besides it is still possible that the engraving is present underneath the sticker.

Is there any reason to doubt that the watch has the engraving? The sticker could simply be covering it, no?
Also, not sure whether the engraving being present or not would affect the price much. After all, the buyer likely bid the 60k SEK because of the condition.
