Nice little Hammy for the money (offers accepted too). All steel and case should be 35mm. Needs a new crystal and a nice strap but this should clean up real nice.

Great catch, these Hamiltons have a cool and unique face to them.

Not the most knowledgeable on these and I know vintage Longines can be a minefield, but this double signed military Sei Tacche looks like a real stunner. All stainless and the dial looks good to my non-expert eye with some acceptable (I would say pleasing) patina and original lume. Hands are obviously relumed, not sure if original for this reference.

Make an offer and find out!

I think the price is a little steep but he does accept offers. I wouldn’t be so quick to say the hands have been relumed- I see some honest patina on them- perhaps an older relume, but possible original.

Yeah, not too sure where the 'deal' threshold lies with these. All those I've seen in that range are either refinished, nearly destroyed or have chrome plated cases. Clean original SS ones seem to go for more. Maybe someone here snatches this one for a good price.

Modern Bulova chrono goes off later today, currently $385, seems a good deal for a new vintage style Swiss with SW500

Same seller I bought from, also lists the slate dial BIN $589, I’m wearing today on leather

Hey guys, although not a “rule” of course (there are no rules in bargain thread), posting live auctions can blow it for someone here who was bidding on it, and just because it’s a bargain now doesn’t mean it will stay that way.
Posting watches with a BIN (with make offer even better) is a fixed price auction and is first come first serve with no competition among friends.

Hi, I picked this up and it's great! Thanks for the heads up...
That's a sharp Wyler, great little piece! Mind my asking what you snagged it for? They had 'make offer', so just wondering what the final number ended up being for a gauge of future 'deals' found out there.

Also, welcome to OF!

You got a nice buy. Now forget about Wyler HD 660’s- they all suck, you don’t want to collect any more of them

Ended at $405 LMK if I cost the winner $20 by posting the auction maybe I can offer a discount on my next sale?

Same seller (no affiliation) has this 32mm vintage inspired Joseph Bulova tank

Now I know the real reason to post here, so someone else buys it so I won’t

Great looking SS Eterna with lovely patina. Lume on the minute hand is a bit darker than the rest but appears in very good nick overall. Seller accepts offers
