    The 104 with a white face is lovely. Although a bit taller than 12m, the Stowa Seatime is a nice looking piece too. A Damasko could be an option too?

    Somewhat reluctant, but we've some work we'd like to get done around the house - and hopefully I'll replace it with a submersible at a later date.

    Here is my PAM 111. It comes triple boxed (rip on the outer cardboard box), with 2 original Panerai straps (the black one is quite worn) and 4 after market ones: 2 leather, one denim and 1 rubber (branded but fake). Overall in good condition - the usual marks.

    As you can see, this has the display back and sandwich dial. I think this dial is a lot better than the "sausage dials" where the numbers and markers are painted on.

    I'd like to get 3,700 for this, and if it helps, I'd consider something up to 1K or so in trade. I haven't seen many full sets in the EU below 4K.

    I had it named on my household policy, so can provide the professional valuation doc for it too (although it's valued way higher, because it was the price to replace with a new PAM).

    Been looking to get a German tool/dive watch to complete my all purpose 2 watch German collection. In or around 40-41mm, 12mm thick odd. The Sinn 104 is calling out to me. Any bargains, forum offers or opinions let me know.

    Have a look at damasko. Mine has stood up well to a hard life on the farm for 5 years. Mine's a DA 44 but I've no experience of their divers. Their tool watches are good to 100m at least.

    Hi all,


    I have my Nomos Orion 38 Datum for sale, I bought it second hand a few months and have only worn it 2-3 times. I find Im wearing my Seiko Padi 90% of the time.


    It is unmarked and still in its original case.


    Its up for 1,300 on adverts but Id be happy with €1,150 from a boardsie,


    Hope everyone is all good!

    I don't know if its just me?
    But!
    There seems to be a dearth of buyers at the moment in the mid-range.
    I hope its just something that's affecting me, but I had my Arnie up at a very competitive price IMO and turned down an offer in the hope of a little higher, but not a sniff since.

    GLWS tho, its a lovely watch and Hamilton are rock solid.

    Depends on the watch really, surprised your Arnie isn't gone, you had it priced fairly well....a buyer always comes along at some point, patience is the key and generally a virtue lacking in us watch collectors.

    Are you already on the hunt for replacing the one you sold? :D

    Nah I am trying to get off the flipping carousels. Have my eye on a dark side/ Grey side of the moon and holding out for one to turn up.

    go dark side,

    i have had the grey side and the dark side pitch black.

    if i was going again id go std dark side (pitchblack has the lumed bezel which is nice but the dial is matt v the shiney one on the og dark side which to my eye is nicer) or the sedna gold mix one which is lovely,

    grey side is a bit...grey :o

    the seller is a gent (bought my AP from him) if you are lookiing at the one on tz-uk.

    its cool, handwound so its not as thick as the autos (which to be honest are probably a smidge too thick)

    personally id prefer a plain black strap without the yellow but thats just me.

    this is the black sedna also worth a look

    Busy as a bee:D Looks ok with all the hands pointing straight up and the time set as it is, try to imagine reading the time at 25 to 7 with the chrono running. Just MHO, if you like it go for it.

    I don't think you've anything sporty / funky left in your collection, so would be a good addition!

    I need to sell some of my watches though, I've yet another one incoming :eek:

    Lovely, only comment would be to chose your watchmaker carefully. With those visible screws they need to be minded during a service! But will you keep it that long?

    No, I wish.

    Not many of these coming up for sale. And I'm not prepared to pay anywhere near retail (€11,400) for one

    And in normal circumstances I would be prepared to travel to pick one up, but we can't go abroad these days. Hell, I can't even leave Dublin with the current lockdown :p

    I always fancied the grey, and still like it, but am looking at the Spitfire Chrono
    instead

    I'm going to be putting my Seiko SARX055 up on Ebay in a week or two.
    Immaculate condition, box, papers etc.
    Will be up on Ebay for around €1000 but will take an offer of €900 from anyone around here.
    Reason for sale? Just doesn't get worn since I got a pair of GS and a Union Glashutte.
