My LBC account is blocked so I can not buy it but this is an absolute bargain: https://www.leboncoin.fr/ad/livres/2847606779
If someone here buys it I want the Cartier because I tipped you. I'll pay shipping ;-)

Hey! I just bought it, and I can’t wait to see it. I’ll be sending the Cartier book your way soon! Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do with UG. Talk soon!

Not at all. Tried to buy but one can only buy with a fully confirmed account which requires a French mobile number. Seller agreed on PP and I sent my PP adress in a picture but even that was seen....
For a few bucks you can get an Orange secondary e-sim that has a French number and should be usable in most of Europe fyi

Hey folks, I quietly slipped in and adopted the watch. Don't worry though, I’ll make sure it gets plenty of wrist time and good lighting for all those future wrist shots.

I’ve rarely come across a dial with such a stunning copper tint in absolutely perfect condition. The white circle for the tachy scale really sets it apart, it’s a detail that you don’t see too often.

This one’s definitely a standout piece in every way !

Appears to be in amazing condition aside from the drilled lugs (maybe these were original but I assume not).
IMHO, those drilled lugs could totally be original. I've seen plenty of models with the same feature ...

Agree. I was considering the watch but unfortunately no funds available...

Funny one. Seller says: 'Diese Uhr ist komplett original und wurde seit dem Kauf nicht berührt.' which means the watch is completely original and untouched since I bought it. Which may be true since it was acquired on 22 Sept in the USA... (https://www.ebay.com/itm/296688435232)

This ended even funnier. I won the auction with a bid of CHF 815, which is considerably lower than the ebay sales price (and then I forget shipping and importing it into Switzerland). But hey: stranger things have happened. I kindly asked the seller for 2 pics with the hands at a 12.00 and 3.15. After 5 hours or so this is what I got



2 TINY pictures. Same background as the ebay pics. X in compax missing. End of story: seller lost his account.
