    Hey guys, I let this super sharp Enicar Aqua Graph MK IV from my collection go, so this is probably your chance to own one. The watch is from the latest batch of Aqua Graphs and you might wonder, why does this one have a GMT bezel? Well I admit, this is super strange but not unique to this watch. In the later batches of this series, it seems Enicar

    a) had availability problems of the Diving bezel,
    b) quality problems or
    c) they didn' care in the beginning 1970s ;).

    So lets talk about the pros: first of all, the 40mm EPSA Compressor case. It's super sharp, probably the best I have ever had. We talk razor sharp edges! :D Caseback has the typical opening marks, but nothing wild. Every number and letter is still visible and deep. The dial and hands are in great minty shape too. Also the GMT bezel is not worn and in immaculate condition. It moves freely, as is the red pointer. Valjoux 72 movement is running good, though the service history is unknown.

    Pricewise I'd like to have 5.200€ obro. Let me know if you have any questions.
