Assuming this is the one on Jacek's site (hqmilton.com: http://www.hqmilton.com/index.php/si...ervice_papers/). If you can live with the dial imperfections (which some would argue adds character), seems like a decent price from a trusted seller. Has a recent Ridley service which is not cheap and it looks like he did a full overhaul.

Those are jacek's pics. If they are directly from him then it's legit. If not you better run like those Kenyan marathon runners!

If you like $4,300, would you love $3,950?

The benefit of buying it here from his TRF listing is you get a better deal...
