That piece is in pretty rough conditions considering the year it’s released.
I think it is just in “dirty” condition and his current holder is lazy to clean it.
It is already “on hold” status....
Well no luck with the Cardinals. The highlight was leaving at start of 4th Qt and beating the traffic leaving
T T3FHi guys! This is probably a dumb question, but is there any hope of sourcing one of these via a boutique or AD at this point? I remember seeing them within the last year or so, but the market seems to have taken off since then.
It could be difficult now, I think. After I read that two had appeared and had been snapped up from my local OB a while back, I went in and made enquiries. The salesperson said they would look into availability and asked me to leave my contact details, but I never heard back from them. I started poking around on OF but had no luck and eventually managed to find one from a dealer overseas. Slightly disappointing that after several months, I've never heard back from the OB. I thought they'd at least try to foist something else on me! 😉
This, my friend, is one of the nicest straps for the Tintin. Any chance you can share the cost and where to purchase?
T T3FThanks for the response, that's what I figured. I called my local OB and was told they wouldn't be able to get one, which was expected. My guess is that there's still a few hanging around ADs somewhere, as the market has just recently taken off and very few people are "in-the-know" enough to recognize what this watch is. I just found a JLC Geophysic 1958 LE in steel, which was allegedly sold out 2-3 years ago, so I'm keeping my hopes up. I also have to admit that I kind of enjoy the challenge of finding something like this. Hopefully my next post in this thread will be about one I found!
