Best of luck with the sale, two great watches for your boards prices. Can't say I'm not tempted by both of them. Have to keep my urges under control!

Until I try to take decent photos I don’t realise how hard it is. The AT ones took an age and they are still just barely better than what I could do on my phone. Camera is too good and keep showing up water spots and grime between links etc. Still plenty on show!

And that blue AT is step above interms of dial finish than any Rolex!

I'd say more light is the key...of course if you don't want to show blemishes then maybe not

Def struggled with light. Had it in a light box to try assist but didn’t come out great. Must look into getting a decent macro lens for experimentation.

It is in great condition anyway. Only one decent scratch to clasp as pictured but even that is nothing more than superficial. Other wise the usually micro scratches. I had it on nato for 80 percent of its life.

I picked up a new phone earlier this week that has one of the newer quad cam setups.
I was actually blown away by the macro feature on it.

Usually macro shots, albeit not of watches entailed my borrowing the Mrs' DSLR.
Not anymore!

Lovely watches by the way, and GLWS!

On hold to a boardie for very close to the boardie asking price.

Deal of the century IMO.
You paid 2800 or so two years for your if I recall? And yours has no box or papers? And that was a lot of searching to get one as cheap as that if I recall.

I paid 3000 dollars and picked up while in the US last year. I think it worked out about 2500 or 2600 euro. Was hard to source alright.

I'd be very interested if that sale falls through. I'm abroad and covid makes weekend trips home much rarer than usual though. Could pay a deposit if you don't sell elsewhere

Looks like it will go through. Will keep you in line next.

In the mean while I have an even better value planet ocean available!

micks_address · 04-09-2020 01:13PM

It's actually back with Omega for service..I know it will be expensive but I want to hold it and have warranty cards.. no cards with mine just a box.. it probably didn't need a service but it be fine for a few years once back.. five plus at least..service via john brerton... I think im content with my lot at the moment... Aqua Terra, speedmaster and seamaster 300m..the Stowa marine is essentially new after service.. have an skx007 mod project underway..Casio all metal for beater and lord marvel for something old... I've a Seiko explorer mod that I'll pass on at some point...

I'm a sucker for a GMT, if there's noone else after it I'd be interested?

Especially if he fancies a swap for my Arnie

He does like a Seiko after all :P

893bet · 05-09-2020 11:04AM

Will be selling the below also if my AT goes through.

Especially of interest to Mick and the new buyer.

Nato as below. My eyes ain’t good enough to see the part number and can’t find my loupe. Original omega obviously. Think these are around 150 new from omega. 20mm and will look the bus on any blue omega.

Will take 85 delivered.

And deployant and dark blue strap below. Part numbers can be seen. Strap is 19mm so will suit any 20mm lug omega. Again original omega parts.

Will take 210 euro delivered.

893bet · 05-09-2020 11:28AM

Also have a loose deployant for 150euro. Never worn.

@893bet thanks for the facilitation on that.

It’s not that much of a pain cost you 100 tops with a courier get a 3rd party insurance co like infosure

893bet · 06-09-2020 01:09PM

Will a courier take if you declare it as a watch? Always reluctant to ship abroad also.

Stowa used FedEx to ship my watch back and forth. Dhl delivered my seamaster from Hungary. They must have options.. seamaster was private seller

Yes I’ve send a few via tnt and insured separately

Cool.

Any courier will take anything really. Thing is are you covered. Even if insured separate. Let’s say watches were on list of prohibited items and you sent it but didn’t declare it. Is there a clause in the separate policy that will screw your as the courier you used had it down as not something they carry.

Business accounts are no problem. Private sellers a lot more tricky.

Hi I usually declare it as horological goods . It’s work to ship it but insurance is another 70 quid
