    if for some reason you had paid retail on one youd be crying :pac:

    and its an understandable asking price from someone who did pay retail as youd have to assume they dont know any better

    he will get a shock!

    he might just come away thinking all buyers on adverts are low balling dicks. I would come in there at 2400 and see whats what and yes 3k would be about right on it as its 10/10. The buyer has to go low in order to meet in the middle, but that first offer is 1600 under asking, which really seems a dick move. If I wanted to sell that I would start 3300 with 3k as a reasonable final price. It shows intent to sell. But as you maybe rightly point out if the chap did pay anywhere close to retail he is about to get a fright.

    WTB - Seiko SRP Turtle bracelet - let me know if anyone has anything, open to OEM or Strapcode etc.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    There's one for sale here for EUR70

    Linky


    Bit expensive and very strange that the ad is called "Seiko Watch" when there isn't a watch for sale, just a bracelet

    But I guess that is yourself over there making an offer for PM just now?

    Yeah been following this - asking price and shipping estimate is a bit salty though, they’re about £80 new just finding stock is a problem. I thought my €60 offer incl a €1 stamp was generous enough for a used item.

    Another guy on adverts tracked me down through an ad to sell one but I don’t think it’s legit will post a picture on the fake watch buster thread.

    Selling my Isofrane strap. The original rubber diving strap. Considered the best. Had it on my Seamaster last summer, but the watch is gone and the strap needs to go too. Looking for €80 for it, and that is lower than you will ever get one on eBay.

    Nice to meet you too David. Glad you like the bracelet. Better on your wrist than sitting in my watch bits drawer !

    @Cmar
    Would there be a bracelet for an skx in that parts bin by any chance?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,684 ✭✭✭david


    I have a Super Oyster style bracelet with hollow fitted end links for SKX007/9/11. No idea where it came from, spurious no doubt. Came as part of another deal. It's weighty enough at 91g compared to the stock Jubilee 55g. It's sized for 7", I have 3 more links and there's good wiggle room on the micro adjustment. Takes Seiko fat boy 2.5mm bars.

    If it's any use to you let me know.

    No, I don't have anything for an SKX.


  • Registered Users Posts: 803 ✭✭✭Roycropper63


    Many thanks to both replies. Missed out on the skx this time but will keep it in mind thanks Cmar/David


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,257 ✭✭✭✭Eoin


    I might have a jubilee from an SKX, will dig around.

    You’ve been trying to pick up one for a while? I’ll keep an eye out for you. The prices are fairly mental. They’re €250 on creation watches for the 009, that’s unfortunately the best value I’m seeing for a new one. Can’t see them getting any cheaper. I’d always recommend second hand if you’ve plans to mod it anyway. I got mine for a fair deal with a scratch on the crystal which I was replacing with sapphire anyway. The 7S26 is the most reliable movement I have, it’s lost about 5 seconds over the last fortnight compared to my iPhone. It’s the cockroach of the clock movement world. Survive anything.

    There’s better value right now in prospex turtles, you’d get an SRP 775/777 for less money than an SKX with a bit of patience

    Pm us a price on that if Roy doesn’t want it, owe you one since the chapter ring.


  • Registered Users Posts: 803 ✭✭✭Roycropper63


    Work away david had my eye on an 013; but was indecisive on 2:occasions recently and missed them. Have an srp773 turtle already and got a 4th generation monster .
    So will keep searching.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,684 ✭✭✭david


    Ah ok I’ll let you know if I come across any bargains, 20mm lugs on the 013 so neither bracelet would work

    I am looking at a bit of a clear out but throwing these up here before putting on the ebay/adverts. PM if interested or want prices etc.

    First pic is a no name Chinese flieger. I think this is a Parnis with no name on the dial.
    Second pic is a Seagull 63. About 2 years old. Includes original case and unworn straps.
    Third is an old Chrono from the early 1960s with a landeron movement inside.
    And the last is an Omega Seamaster 30 from 1963.

    All sold now except the no name Chinese Fleiger.
    California dial and display case back.
    Looking for 80 for it.

    Hope all is ok mate!

    The Vacheron is beautiful, indeed all those watches are.
    If I'd not just bought some bits recently I'd be all over at least 2 of these.

    GLWS, and someone is scoring a real bargain with the Vach IMO.

    All is ok thankfully. Not really a firesale btw. Was just jesting as we had been discussing people getting desperate and dumping watching.

    Looking to trade up to something a little bit special and a lot expensive. It’s a longer term plan so not in a rush to sell.

    All three are lovely watches. As I took quick and dirty images I was having second thoughts. Especially about the Planet Ocean. And the Vacheron. And the Nomos.

    Already thinking of withdrawing lol.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,684 ✭✭✭david


    As an affordable watch guy, that Nomos is my grail dressier watch, absolutely beautiful and amazing price. If I wasn't on temp-layoff I'd be on it in a heartbeat. GLWS, or not as the case may be :pac:

    Glad to hear that you are well :D

    I can totally get the sellers remorse :pac:

    I was supposed to sell my B&R on foot of buying the Accutron...

    Instead, My son got a late 16th bday present and I can borrow it when I want! ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,110 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    Glad to hear you're okay 893

    Something more special than the VC? That's got to be pretty spectacular then (diamond encrusted Hublot big bang?) :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,917 ✭✭✭hitemfrank


    I reckons he's after one of those *tastefully done white gold diamond encrusted Pateks.

    *this might be the entirely wrong word

    Might regret letting the VC go. Close to irreplaceable. There is only one more 42040 for sale that I can see on chrono24. Genuinely rare (unlike the rare at RRP Rolex and patek) but Uber low demand.

    I am after an A Lange and Sohne....exact model not quite sure yet.
