    Need more details what type of gold, what type of watch and photographs would help.

    Couldn't tell you what type of gold but it says the watch is part of the 'Connoisseur Collection'.

    Here's a couple of photos of the watch, hope it helps :)

    Nice dress watch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,731 ✭✭✭Bullseye1


    Just looked up the brand. They make some nice watches which seem to vary in price between $1500-$3000. I don't see any gold ones so far.

    I'd suspect that because it's good and a Swiss watch albeit a quartz you should get €1500-€2000 (depending on gold type). It might be worth your while visiting watchuseek forum and look up the brand there.

    Is it solid gold or gold plate?

    This watch doesn't look like anything in the current Glycine lineup but in the past they were known for their "GoldShield" gold plated watches which featured relatively thick gold plating at 40 microns.

    Unfortunately, I think €100 is closer to the mark for a gold-plated quartz Glycine. You can get a brand new automatic for about €300, although I saw them going for less in Dublin a year ago.

    Let me put it like this: I can't remember ever seeing a solid gold quartz Glycine. :)

    Anyone interested in a fully overhauled 1957 Omega Constellation with a full 2 years warranty on it. My nasty photo's don't do the watch any justice at all, automatic macro on a Sony camera is horrible. I have moved to mostly vintage Seiko and I have a deposit on a vintage diver from 1975 so this needs to go asap to fund it, price negotiable due to the urgency.

    The work was carried out by Jesse Hueg (Omega564) on some watch forums, his company is based in Albany New York jhfinewatches

    I have had dealings in the past with a few of the guys here on the forum.

    That's a bloody beauty HDMI.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Thanks Wibbs, this one is just a case of bad timing. I bought and set it aside never wore it, and then about 6 months ago I decided to send it of to get it overhauled. While it was off on holidays I found myself more drawn to vintage Seiko, now that it's back it's caught in the crossfire of my need for a Seiko 6105 diver.


  • Registered Users Posts: 546 ✭✭✭gerfmurphy


    just if anyone is interested in some storage stuff

    not getting enough wrist time anymore since getting a few smaller divers. in great condition, fully serviced, seals replaced, pressure tested, new battery. check out the pics and give me a shout if you are interested.

    :rolleyes:
    Trying hard to be a 1 watch guy!
    (apart from my work watch, outdoor watch, and collector watch)

    I've put my minty Stowa Flieger B-Dial up for a swap. I've had the watch for a month and its unmarked. The brown leather 'old style flieger' strap is nicely broken in. The watch has the movement upgrade to chronometer standard 2824.

    Looking to trade for an Omega Seamaster Pro 'Bond' in good condition. Seeking a full-size, blue dial, quartz with a all bracelet links.

    Reason I'm ditching the Stowa - I really want a quartz SMP and I don't want to increase my collection. If I have to let one go, it'll be this new acquisition.

    Will also sell for slightly less than I paid to reflect that the watch has been worn, minus P&P from Stowa (€800).

    As you'll know or discover, there's a long wait for one of these new from Stowa, and they don't come up used that often.

    edit : link to ad http://www.adverts.ie/mens-watches/lnib-stowa-flieger-b-dial/1676780

    No pics as yet - will try and get 'em up shortly - I'd prefer a face to face deal in Dublin in any event and happy to show the piece personally.
