    I thought about it for a minute, but I already have two Kontikis. Thanks for saving me from myself on this one, I am going to stand down!

    A lot of lume for the money on this one! Not cheap but looks great and the seller will take offers.

    Mint military Hamilton with box. This shouldn't last long.

    If patina's your thing, this Sea Wolf has plenty of it. Great looker, imho. Crown is a replacement. Someone here should throw in an offer and get it!

    I was also tempted as it's a non-date version, but I know @Dsplash is more into Eternas than me. So good luck!

    Note this should only appeal at a very low price. The dial has been scrubbed clean of numerals! It was probably as black as the hands and someone tried to clean them. Shame. This is one of mine- what it should look like....crowns can be found. Date versions are more problematic. Second hand is wrong. Looks like someone Sharpie’d the bezel.

    Yeah, the markers, hands and bezel are a mess... at least it’s a cohesive mess which is part of the charm. The dial itself is quite different from the one you shared with a silver sunburst that looks really intriguing. I’ll try finding other pictures of a dial with that finish.

    If that thing fetches $550 I’ll be thrilled- then I can unload my cache at twice that!;)

    So I’m guessing somewhere around 4-500$?

    I glad I continued to scroll, or I would have been a competing bidder. Standing down, and best of luck!

    Wow! I’m kind of embarrassed now, thanks everyone!
    I don’t intend to go higher than 500$ so if you intended to go higher, I’m the one who’ll back down!

    This is the kind of coordination I love to see. We have enough competition from the ass-hats and scammers on eBay, we don’t need to compete with each-other.

    It’s a nice cheapie with what appears to be a Bakelite bezel and attractive dial. I know we have a member here who has one serviced by his watchmaker- so they can be done.
