Speedmaster mark II 145.034 gold plated advice

Personally I wouldn't buy any gold plated watch, I don't like the feel or finish which if not mint/excellent can look and feel shabby and worn. But if that is what you like then of course that is fine, just be careful to check the plate very, very carefully for damage as it can't be fixed.

With a MKII I'd say the gold plated version is the least collected and I'd really like to see this E3K watch...for that kind of premium it must be the best out there! If I was looking for one I'd be looking to spend between E1250 and maybe E1750 absolute max for a top specimen, bearing in mind it will probably be needing a minium E300 service of the 861 movement plus maybe parts too.
