Love them. Used to have one and gifted it to a mate going through chemo.

What would you let it go for?

I have the King turtle version, if you are anyway hard on watches the ceramic bezel is a big + but the cyclops isn't for everyone. Not selling it......yet.

Found this one but the misalignment on some of these is awful.

That's decent value - I don't know if I trust that website though? It says light blemishes on the bezel. If it's the tiny dots at 4, 10 & 11 I could maybe live with it. Bezel alignment doesn't bother me at all so long as the chapter ring is straight. I've got lucky with all my Seikos so far but I've no issue popping it off and realigning if needed. Any issues that would compromise WR are a different story.

I was looking at the king turtle alright, how do you find the more defined bezel and vintage patina style lume? Any pictures?

I'd probably swap the sapphire, not sure I'd live with a cyclops. The videos of people hacking them with a blowtorch/chisel give me serious anxiety.

unkel · 21-09-2020 8:37pm

It's good value, but you will have to add in shipping costs + VAT + customs clearance. Then it's no longer such good value. Nice watch though. I do like my turtles

CalamariFritti · 22-09-2020 3:38pm

Just putting this here. A couple of Seikos that aren't being worn at all. Many watchers no offers. Too expensive?

From my experience, with many watchers no offers it usually indicates that people are waiting for you to lower the price (fairly or unfairly they are only interested at a lower price).

The first is very nice

CalamariFritti · 23-09-2020 10:53am

Thanks will try to put up better pics and hold out a little longer. Pics aren't great admittedly especially on number 2.

Reluctant to lower price especially on number 1. Paid a little more for it and haven't worn it at all. Maybe I paid too much but I can hold out a little longer. Discontineud model is unlikely to depreciate further, no?

Thanks

Selling my Bulova Moon

Took it as a trade and have never actually worn it.

It’s a cracking watch and deserves to be worn.

Am looking for €240 , including registered post.

PayPal nett to me

Any questions, fire away.

I don't have one, but I do have a soft spot for Breitling.

If I was to purchase, it would either be a proper old style Navitimer, or a completely modern Aerospace/Exospace.

The B55 is a monster! As much as I like Omega, and the heritage, I think the B55 is a nicer piece than a Z-33.

Good luck with the hunt and be sure to post plenty of pics and detailed impressions when you acquire.

That didn't last long, Unkel! Didn't bond with it / have an eye on something else?

unkel · 30-09-2020 2:51pm

It's a beauty, but the silver letters on the black dial are not the most legible for my eyes, which are no longer the youngest

Very comfortable to wear though, despite its size and its weight. I'd say the 23mm lug width helps a lot there. And of course the leather strap. Makes you wonder why not more bigger and / or heavier watches are 23mm or even 24mm

I have generally found 20mm on a 40-42mm sports watch / diver too narrow before too. If you wear them on a nato or rubber, you could oversize by a mm, I did that with my Seamaster, which helped a bit. I had already decided to only buy Seiko divers again if they are 22mm

Another B55 fanboy here. I saw the one on the blue strap but it was outside my price range. I have read comments about the bluetooth and syncing with the phone have been problematic.

I was between the titanium and the night mission with the blue strap which I think looks very well. The night mission doesn't look like it ages well from some pictures I've seen on pre owned ones.

The hunt is on

luckily I'm not in any hurry and can wait till a good deal comes up......fingers crossed

I suppose its what you want from the watch. I just put my Superocean II back on this morning having been wearing a Sea Avenger for the past month and it feels like a brand new watch. As I said in a different thread the purpose behind me wearing these watches is that I have something to leave the kids when I am gone. So it tells the time and has a date, thats it! If you go down the road of an exospace who's to say that Breitling will say they can no longer service them in 20/30 years. Something to think about before your next purchase.

As a side note, would you consider the new Endurance Pro. I have seen prices around the 2500-3000 mark. Big birthday in a couple of years and that will be on the pressie list!

david · 06-10-2020 11:17am

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.

Eoin · 06-10-2020 12:42pm

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?

Eoin · 06-10-2020 1:19pm

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).

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.

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

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
