How do I search for this model, aside from the reference number? Your pics have made me fall in love with the watch and the defy is the next watch I buy. I can only find the octagonal case version though when I look.

As no one has said anything yet too... Dibs!

 

I'm still loving mine (thanks again LouS) and an octagonal WILL be my next one.......so okay to pass on those @rahib!

 

Thanks, there's a really nice NOS one on chrono24, but the price is pretty ambitious. I guess i'll just keep hunting.

No worries!

The octagonal model looks very weird, i'm convinced I wouldn't get on with it!

 

Agreed!

 

Was chatting with this very decent chap via email, and it looks like a nice 146D in 18kt gold (wish I had the funds to purchase it!).

Heavy price, especially with the lack of protection afforded by Gumtree.

 

I said the same thing to him, for what it's worth. There's some flex there, though, I should think.

 

Just fyi, for the 156 i posted just right before you. Seller was asking 3000euro, I bidded 1800 euro (which I still think it is fair but still on the high side given a little groggy dial) and seller agreed. And it is on eBay with full PayPal protection.

 

Not Zenith but a 3019PHC

I can't because only USA......
