    I am offering a 2998-61.
    The dial has patina or degradation between the 9 and 12 markers, but it is still very acceptable.
    Hands are correct for the model but I could not confirm if they are the originals. I will also include the Thomas Preik see through back and shell cordovan strap. The thread on the case back has been laser welded to rectify a very worn thread and is now perfect and you cannot tell that it has been repaired.
    2998's are very thin on the ground and are not coming up for sale very often.

    Please see hi res pics below and obviously I am happy to provide more pics or answer any queries.

    I am looking for 17K USD plus shipping.

    Cheers

    Hi all,
    This watch is unfortunately/fortunately (depends on perspective) back on the market due to the purchaser reneging on the deal and then making an offer for less than the agreed sale price.

    The only reason I am selling this watch is to honour a commitment elsewhere therefore for all who were interested please feel free to make me a sensible offer and the watch could be yours

    Cheers
