Beautiful - I want to add one of these to the stable at some point. Just love my evil Nina and it would go fantasitic with it. Your collection of 60s UGs is jut amazing.

The Headline says it all! A dream watch. Belongs in the hand of a passionated collector, so just right where it ended. G.

Any info on those straps?
They are a limited run I did with a friend, unfortunately. We sold them on Instagram but they’re gone now 🙁

Dibs on at least two orders of those straps if you do another run!

really interesting story line. A year ago You passed on what you describe to be an unworn 881101. I imagine with box and papers? or just unworn? and a year later it remained unsold? Remarkable to pass on the watch the first time, because it's in the category of "show me another one." Which means that is very hard to find in this condition and it sat for a year waiting for you. That is some very good luck.

Yes, at the time I had moved, bought a house, two cars, and furnished said house so I didn't have as much free cash flow as I otherwise would. The price was high (but reasonable) so when the seller was unwilling to negotiate on price, I had to walk away. Thankfully she came back a year later and at that point, I had rebuilt my war chest a bit! Very lucky indeed.
