Sounds like a good buy if the condition is good.

Welcome to TRF!

That's a good deal, I'd say!

The difference between the two was an upgrade of the movement from Cal. 3000 (intro 1990) to 3130 (intro 2001; 27 vs. 31 jewels).

Later, in 2007, the 3130 movt. got COSC rated.

WELCOME TO TRF, Bro...
I think is more than good, is AWESOME buy!!! You have complete set, I think. Is that SubND must be 14060M? Or I'm wrong?

Hmm. Just a thought...

The watch has pinholes in the lugs so it can't be all that new. Pre 2001 if it's is a 14060... Yet it comes with the new type of box... The box can't have come with the watch originally. Eventhough the box doesn't say anything about the watch, I'd still be wary if someone offered me this deal claiming it to be "all original".

What do the papers look like?

No, all 14060M's have holes in the lugs, to this day.

The tag shows it is an F-serial, early 2005.

The only thing I don't like is the "4" on the bezel. Maybe it is a service replacement, which is fine.

For $2600 that is an excellent buy.
