And I was rather pleased, so I took this quick photo. An OT 2500 JUB (of course), YG, case # 10725114 (yes, it's in the table). I will do a proper write-up (with more photos) soon, so this is just a taster - Do you know, despite all the research I have done recently into these, before today I had never actually seen or held a Centenary in the metal, as it were. And I am left amazed The way the light reflects around the dial makes it almost impossible to photograph. The watch is also much heavier than I had expected, must be all that 18k YG. Purchasing this watch has been a real saga, and no, it was not on eBay. Now I actually have the thing I still can't quite believe it . . . many thanks to everyone who has helped with advice and information along the way, and especial thanks to Dennis for giving the seller's pictures the once over for me
that's a beauty for sure John! welcome to the "club" and they are quite impressive "in the metal" aren't they? wore mine on my son's wedding. 1st and only time(with a caseback sticker of course)
Very nice condition!!! Amazing that it still has the original crown as well. I'm betting the movement is just as sharp too.
Wow, look at that baby shine! I'd be scared to wear this one but I sure would pull it out everyday just to admire the beauty. Congratulations! The condition is unbelievable!
Thank you all for your kind remarks, and Alam your dibs are duly noted! Original everything, as far as I can tell, and the movement looks as if it came out of the factory yesterday. That is the slightly worrying part, but I think I could get used to it for evenings out . . .
What a beauty and the condition is just stunning. The more I see them the more the urge starts to rear its head... ...I´m sure it´s just a matter of time for me, as I know that trying to fight the urge will doubtless prove a futile task
Wow, a super looker. I too was amazed. Bigger and and heavier than they photograph. Definitely has more "wrist presence" than I had imagined. PS. A Kilaran matte brown alligator arrived for mine a few days ago.
