Hell yes! Glad you got it Aaron- it’s a cool watch. I like the pip too actually.
Here is my bezel-less Vantage

What a coincidence! Been months since but happen to be wearing mine today!

Nice Stainless Luxor chronograph for our friends in the UK. These are usually chrome plated so finding one in stainless is a real bonus. Dial looks nice with some slight corrosion on the indices but lume is still fairly bright (not moldy black) and I love the blue/red outer track. If I didn’t have 2 like this already at the watchmaker, I would be making an offer.

Oh-c’mon, we need to see a few better pics of that beauty! Is it running ok?
One of the things I look for in this era of chrono are the bigger “eyes”, this one has them. Some sub-dials are smaller and just don’t look right.

Yes seems to run well! Has a nice big exposed crown so easy to wind. Love the blue and red numerals. Photos don’t do it justice.

Yes Exactly. Very comfortable on the wrist. Not even going to renew the crystal!

The high res picture show obvious wear/fade/damage in blue 130 trac area which goes with the story. I would not rule out a replacement crystal as there are quite a few marks. However I’d still be happy leave it as is like you.
But new crystal will lift it even higher.
Again congratulations

I think a simple wet sand on the crystal will do wonders.
This might not be recommended, but it worked...toothpaste and a sonic toothbrush (use an old brush head of course). I picked up a Baltic Aquascaphe recently that had a scuff on the crystal...20 seconds and it was like new...and it had that minty fresh scent too!

Truly the definition of “minty” in a description.

Edit- looking at it closer, I have my suspicions it may be a redial. Regardless, at $150 or less it would be a nice wearer for anyone looking for a daily.
