    Defy Diver. It's seen hard use, like most of the Defy's but it has retained its shape. Dial and hands are pretty good.

    It´s the first one I´ve seen listed on Ebay, I´m very curious as to where it´s heading ;)

    The middle and bottom bezels look a bit wonky. I think you're full of Bulova.

    You know what they say, `Two´s company and three´s a crowd`

    I think you should leave it for me, my poor specimen is very lonely here :D

    I might have to stop saying that these late 60's Defy divers are undervalued. A good price considering the absence of the GF bracelet. But this is a very rare version, as you've noted.

    Looking at that result I would say you can definitely stop saying that now! My guess was in the $1.5K - $1.7K range, but I have yet to see one go in a straight auction.

    (Unfortunately) this one isn't available anymore. I really really like this A3642 but this was not the right moment for me.

    Neither recommending nor dissing this Espada, but an Espada for sale is always worthy of a mention. The hour and minute hands appear to be from a Movado HS 360, though I must say they look pretty good. Bracelet clasp is wrong. No movement shots. Nice looking dial and case, and the blue internal bezel is unusually well preserved. The minimum bid is not a particularly high price, all things considered, but the BIN is too high given the replacement hands.

    Is that the hallmark of a golden squirrel I see in LouS' new avatar?

    Yes. The Golden Squirrel has been right there on watch cases in front of our noses. I'll bet all of our collections have been infiltrated. We are powerless against the Golden Squirrel. I thought I would simply muster my courage and admit it. I am not ashamed.

    We are not worthy, Sensei. Now, where is that hallmark of the shotgun so we can rid ourselves of "the golden squirrel of distraction."

    Aside from the bable. the first Espada is not terribly priced. A set of correct hands and correcting the bracelet perhaps 5-700 if you don't mind that sort of thing. How many Espada have you seen in the last 3-4 months!
