    My brother always spends Christmas in Germany with his in-laws and sent these pictures through today, found in a drawer with three broken quartz watches. Lucky fish, currently not for sale, enjoy.

    Warning: do not look at the photo of the case back while eating.

    Lovely watch, can’t beat a bit of wrist cheese for originality!

    That'll clean up real nice. Fun watch, congrats. Saw a short blog post about these a few weeks back that made me appreciate them more.

    Not a lot to report, sadly what I thought it was worth and what they found on Chrono24 was too far apart. C’est la vie, it’s probably gone back in the drawer.

    Show them ebay 'sold for' prices instead! Chrono24 prices are always inflated.

    Ebay sold and then discount 15% for that is what they will get...

    That's too bad, but pretty understandable for folks who haven't "found" the sickness hobby...

    If that watch were to somehow find it's way to my possession...this is who I'd send it to for proper care when servicing:

    edit: I am being tongue-in-cheek with my italicization above, and not making a "stealth overture" to buy. I assume that the OPs original comment about not being for sale is still valid. I simply wanted to point out a meaningful comp for a fully serviced and available example.
