Wow … either that “exquisite ensemble” is sitting on a crate of gold bullion, or somebody’s valuation is just a bit off.

Delve into the realms of GMT, Submariner, Moonwatch, Pre-Moon, and...

me at the AD: "Yeah, I'm from the realm of Pre-Moon and I'l like to delve into GMT."

This one is just utterly munted, hopefully nobody buys it unless they plan to send it to Omega and hope for their good will in giving it one of everything. the opening bid already sounds too much given the likely parts needed.

So, from the front this one doesn’t look too bad, but there’s a good reason why it isn’t in the recommended thread, and that is because the caseback medallion is so badly ground down that it vaguely resembles a flaccid and rather unimpressive corpus spongiosum.

I think the nicest thing to be said for it is that it’s a highly affordable way to get into denim cutoff shorts and Hawaiian shirts

And you don't need to be able to grow a mustache first.

I believe that is the exceeding rare and valuable “impressionist’ version of the medallion caseback. Much sought after by art collectors worldwide.

I suspect the owners who consigned this pimped 168.010 to auction may be disappointed on sale day.

Estimate £9,750-10,750
