are you OK w/ 34mm? Dial looks flawless, case looks goo, alot of stretch in the Jubilee that is normal.
Looks nice in the pics - always be weary on ebay unless you know the seller. |

I had this watch
I bought one, identical bezel, oyster bracelet, in 1974. I had it until 2010.
I bought it for half MSRP of $350 (!!!) as part of an insurance settlement. It disappeared in 2010 while I was in hospital. "Rare" doesn't begin to cover it. Thus my Grail, a.k.a. My Precious..sss..sss Thank you, TRF members. I'll keep an eye on it on ebay. |

Ask yourself how long it's going to be until you see it again ;)
Then bid. |

Just buy it!!!!
I have never seen one of those in the wild. I have an 18k 1501 w/ ETB with a light brown version of that dial...looks great. Even at the smaller size it still looks great on the wrist. Buy it! C |

I've only seen a few of those dials and they're gorgeous in person
