·Hi guys. I bought this watch recently. The watch is discussed in detail in the link below and I believe it to be in the same condition as discussed in the 6 pages of this thread. I am not an expert myself but it was discussed by many. Here is what I believe:
Dial and tachy: original
Hands: possibly all original but at least a couple have been relumed. The red hand was for sure replaced.
Caseback: custom sapphire case back included as well as a vintage case back from an a384 possibly?
Again I want to make everyone aware that I am not an expert but I have some decent photos and the watch was discussed in detail on here 3 years ago for 6 pages so please have a look there at the link below.

I won the auction on ebay and believe I got pretty darn lucky on the price. The auction ended early in the morning...8am or so. So I was pretty much the only one around to bid this early in the AM I'm thinking I got a bit lucky.

Price: : $7999usd and shipping world wide FedEx international priority fully insured with parcel pro included. I am considering all trades.
I am just looking to get my money back after all is said and done. I lost some money when the bank converted, CAD into usd, will lose it again when I receive USD and it is converted to CAD, I incurred some customs fees, I have to pay for shipping, etc. I think it is still priced very well.
***could members please private message me if they have questions or comments. I cannot respond here due to the one post in 24 hours rule***
I have many references on multiple forums that I can provide or you can search me on here.
