    The watch comes unworn, full set, and everything in perfect condition.

    Price is £3650
    (GBP Sterling. For guidance this is USD$5260 as of today's rate)


    Watch is currently in UK.
    Delivery in UK is included, and face to face in UK is welcome. (Guildford)
    I could take the watch to USA on Wednesday and send from there, delivery included. If you don't book this by Wednesday it will be a few months till I go to USA again. (And the wife wont carry it for me!) - So its shipping, customs and duty to factor in.

    From experience, if a watch is popular, in the first 24 hours I get many gentle approaches with offers, or requests for often spurious extra information. I will of course reply to all messages eventually, but I will say a message that contains the words "I will buy it at your price" will trump all other messages. If you want to buy this, you have to tell me - I price my watches very well with the intention of agreeing a sale within 24 hours. So far, that is what has happened with the exception of a cheap gold seamaster!

    I have seller and buyer references here. I am selling to refocus my collection. I am not a dealer, and I do not buy in order to sell later for profit. You are buying part of my very carefully chosen collection.

    Last picture shows something on the lugs - probably from the protective film for storage. So here are two more shots to show it is in fact, clean.

    I don't normally comment on others sales posts but feel obliged to on this occasion as that is a very nice watch at a superb price, these are fast appreciating watches and a stock piece at this price is a great buy. GLWTS, not that I think you will need any luck moving this gem on.

    Sold while I slept.
    To the first person who said I will buy it now.
    Thank you all for your interest.
    And sorry to those of you who lost out, thank you for the offers, some of which also said I will buy it now, but came later than the winner.
    Thanks to all

    Congrats on the sale and to the buyer. I saw this beauty right after you posted it, and immediately text'ed a friend about it as well.. I cannot express in words the discipline it required not to jump all over this, and the likelihood of future regret for not doing so.
