    Dial and hands look a little dirty and grimy, bracelet is a nice addition though

    i believe the seller is a member here. :)

    Edited: like that it includes the bracelet. the dial is tired. Chrono hand is incorrect. what does the back of the case look like? serial #? It looks like the ebay watch.

    Thanks. That eBay seller was accused of selling franken-watches prior.
    Any concerns based in these pics?

    It's the same watch. Why are you being cryptic?

    As already said, not in very nice condition... :(.
    However, except chrono hand, it seems quite original to me.
    Case has been excessively polished however.
    Serial number should be in the 707DXXX-708DXXX range... Is it the case?

    $9000 ? it sold in auction for $7350.
    last week.. Was that a sham? Or is
    it for sale from the buyer? Just curious,
    feel free to ignore questions if you are on the watch

    serial is inline with mk2 production and a plain case back.

    For a watch which ended at 7300USD 1 week ago that is a pretty nice return ;).
    More seriously, I don't think the watch worth it (even if prices are increasing fast). You have plenty of nice dials here that can give you the idea of what a nice dial is, and this one is clearly not.
    Case is too polished
    Tachymeter is not in good condition
    Lume is clearly dark (might be sign of water ingress...)
    I know that A386 are each day more difficult to find but I think you should pass on it (at least because it did 7300USD 1 week ago! ;))
    Just my opinion by the way :).

    Dial in too much "lived", reaut is discolored in some part, chrono hand need to replace with original,
    M-H hand miss some tritium... ::shy::
    Buy the quality not only the price.....
