Ooooh yeah…


You can fly over speed bumps and not feel a thing.

 

Great car. Bigger than my house.

 

You can fit 4 mafia stool pigeons in the trunk with the shovels and tarps- purpose built.

 

The 4 that you knocked unconscious with your gold-brick bracelet Hamilton?

Leave the watch. Take the canoli.

 

Snorkel reissue for under $300 with make offer. These are fabulous watches and just an upsized version of the originals.

A solid value on one of the most beautiful 50’s watches out there. We all know these, and this one seems to be in nice shape.

We got a classic here:

34mm Tissot Seastar with the stunning seaster back (shame it can’t be seen while wearing it) trapezoidal date window, silver sunburst dial and factory crown. This should clean up beautifully. Seller says running and has make offer.

A well-preserved example of a mid-1950s Seastar in a wearable 34mm size:


This watch retains its original signed crown, correct hands, nicely-aged lume dots, and probably the aftermarket strap it was originally sold with. For those who are getting into vintage watch collecting, this is a solid first choice: An in-house designed manual-wind movement, applied hour markers, applied logo, all-steel case, and a beautifully-preserved dial with that classic 3-9-12 layout.

The BIN price of US $240 is just about right for a watch in this condition.

Don’t know anything about Gruen watches but this looks very cheap. Needs some work, some worn chrome and maybe there’s something else I don’t understand that explains the price. Will take offers.

Aha, so it’s a replica. Thank you.

 

A rebranded Yema/Le Jour all steel chrono . Queried the seller and this has a Valjoux 7730 inside. Chrono resets to zero. That's a lot of watch for £350.

Ok folks this one is a bit different than most, but represents quite a bit of value for the opening bid. Auction closes in 3 hours - It's already been listed once before with no bids, was relisted at $3K again, and has since been reduced to $2700. There are 4 watches in this lot:

A vintage Longines with a date pip - never seen anything like this myself before, but it's not really my area:


A Le Jour PVD Chronograph - guessing 7750 based? I didn't look too closely:



A blue dial Omega 1160118:



And the real rare bird - a Breitling 3865 skin diver with the most desireable configuration of a broad arrow hand:



Here's a Fratello article discussing that watch, and from what I can tell the value on it is approximately $2700-3K on it's own.

Anyway, I thought someone here might be interested - seems to be the rare value on ebay right now, even if not particularly cheap.

 

Not on eBay but on the Instagram account of a fellow member

Very fun watch

 

This is so cool, and so rare. It ain't minty, but it is collectible IMO.
It is an auction, no BIN or offer.

The service cost me more than the watch did (and the service took forever, there was a tricky problem which only showed when the watch was cased, so my watchmaker had to do many iterations of troubleshooting, ordering parts, etc.). And then the lume on the hands broke, and I decided to relume, matching the color that was in the hands before. But I think it was all worth it.

 

Good investment!!

 

Great looking

great looking arnex. Looks to be the same case and bezel as the Mitchell diver . I have the Wakmann variant with that hardened rubber like bezel . I treat it from time to time with a rubber conditioner. These can break when they get to dried out .

 

Nice 34mm Vulcain, screw back, interesting lugs, $339

That case looks very crisp
