There is the missing page BTW. To make matters more obscure, the supposedly identical 9025 is shown with a different crown.

They mention the dial is massive gold, which I believe is the difference between the gold 9025 and the gold with gold dial 9027. The 9025 also came in SS.

Ah yes, sorry. You're right. Quadrante is the dial, so a dial in massive gold. "Ore oro" is the hour markers, but I'm unsure what the "sfere" are. Spheres in plural? Wouldn't the 9024 be the SS version w/date and 9025 the gold version w/date, and the 9027 the luxury version w/date?

EDIT: Was answering this when you posted the new photo.

EDIT2: When did they go from the date at 12 to date at 3?

There's I'm looking for - the 9025 did not have the facet at the edges of the lugs that the other Conquest cases did. Thanks Ed!

According to the below (provided by BartH earlier in the thread), should your date at 12 not be a 9027? Stunning watches btw.👍

...So, this time around it ended up at $290. I didn't win it... Why? Because the bloody auction site wouldn't let me log in.

I am in a state between bloody pissed off and relieved.

Yep. I'm leaning towards "pissed off".

Agree. It's a steal at that price, condition taken in consideration. I had it in my hands this Saturday, and the dial was nearly spotless. Hands were perfect. All scratches were superficial bar one or two minor spots of pitting and the caseback looked as if it didn't close tight, but that was probably due to a misshapen gasket. You could spend an hour with a polishing cloth and some Polywatch and make a pretty quick turn-around. Or just enjoy a nice watch. Looking at what chewed-up Seamasters reached on that auction site, I am pretty baffled by this result. Perhaps I wasn't the only one who was kept from bidding 😀

Oddly enough, it was still listed today! 😕
No idea what happened, but this time bidding went to a more believable $990.

Odds of it getting relisted has certainly gotten smaller.

Also, judging by the condition of the watch, the original crown must have been busted up by now, but yeah they could have at least put a longines one, at this price...

Lauritz messed up, so I think odds for relisting is pretty good...
