Hi all, what are your thoughts on this 166026 Cosmic (cal 565)? I especially haven‘t seen a red arrow-like second hand like on this one. I really like it and the dial seems to be alright too… the price would be around 850$.

I had never seen either.
I have the impression that the gold is darker than that of the other hands and the style is very different, it is too old for a watch that was intended to be refined and modern.
I doubt it's an original hand.
fortunately it is the right size and the effect is attractive.

I think the case has been polished. to be confirmed by comparing the other gold models
the price to be negotiable for these reasons.

ps : the bubble glass is original with the old logo in the center, which is quite rare on this model.

Replacement hand hand and a strong price for that watch.

yes anyway the price is too high for this model which has been polished.
it should cost a maximum of half as much, and it would still be negotiable at that price.
do you have any pictures of the mechanism?
when an element is bizarre, it is not uncommon for it to announce others...

no unfortunately I don't have pictures of the movement. but since the seconds hand is a replacement I don't think I'll go for it..
