    This was selected from a small lot that was brought out of Pakistan, this one being the best. I bought it in 2016 and I am selling as I want to focus on owning a small number of special speedmasters.

    I am in no way any sort of expert in this reference - I bought it from a trusted dealer friend but you must do your own due diligence - its not a speedmaster!

    I do think it is is very attractive original condition.

    It comes with an extract confirming the delivery to PAF and the engraving on both movement and case.

    Why am I selling?

    I bought this as it was a wonderful opportunity to choose the best from a small collection of these that had come out of Asia. As is often the case I got exited and while this is a fabulous watch it is outside my focus, and so I have decided to sell it.

    Price £12,500

    I think this is an amazing price for this watch. I have done some comparable and many watches on offer are not original. This one is the least expensive one I see offered. My motive is as always to sell easily, to a fellow member, preferably not losing money. Profit is not my motive.

    If I have priced this wrong, then it will sit. So if a week or two has passed feel free to offer - but I really think I have priced to sell fast, even in August.

    What is wrong with it?
    Honestly I cannot see anything, but I will bow to experts.

    Delivery.

    UK face to face is welcome, or I can ship in USA after 4th Sept.

    Notes on my position and ethos
    I am not motivated by profit and so I have no reason to embellish or over describe. I sell my watches to make room for more that I have bought. I have been on eBay since 2002 with 100% feedback. I have bought and sold a few watches on www.OmegaForums.net and you can find my feedback by searching my username. I am the author of Speedmaster101.com and protecting my reputation is more important to me than selling off a watch. I am not a watch dealer, I make my money elsewhere, watches are my pleasure.

    I am open to offers in UK before I leave on Monday.

    Seamasters are not my area so if you want it and have a justifiable offer I am all ears

    Happy to see it go to a good home

    Such a beautiful watch.

    If my funds weren't already allocated I'd be very tempted by this.

    Agreed. Finger on the Buy It Now button waiting for Her Majesty’s Government to drive the pound down to half a US dollar.
