At $1875 already, the cat's been out of the bag long enough to eat a few house plants and knock stuff off the top of the refrigerator. 😜


Hell, the budgie's dead and the goldfish bowl is up-ended.

...and the Little Friskies bag is empty.

The seller seems pretty honest in his description. Redialed (though not horribly done) and broken. Looks like it drove a watchmaker crazy and the seller decided to cut his losses and let the next owner fix it.

Dial a little too far gone for my tastes, but authentic.

Some give it a premium ( Turler ) and others don't. Depends on who you talk to.

Been lurking here for a little while, but have not heard about Türler before. Is it as rare as the Hermes series? or is it a fake - the color of the writing seems to be slightly different than the logo?

The writing of 'Turler' is different because applied to the dial later than the rest of the markings. As for Turler, thing of it as the Tourneau of Switzerland. They were probably tonier in the past, but now it is a chain retailer.

Found a nice one on ebay.... http://goo.gl/SbZdl0 looks good to you guys?

No, not good. That's a lot of € for a repainted dial.

Best I can tell from the out of focus pictures, it seems correct. And the seller knows it - asking price more that GBP 4000!
