Hi,
Offered by a local seller
Opinions on it please

tamiya · 28 October 2017, 12:25 AM

been wrenching on 160X past 48hrs... in comparison, IMHO aftermarket dial & bezel. Rest is too fuzzy in pics to determine.

What year is it, early 70s?

1966 according to the serial
Whats the value of this more or less
He claims 3-4 c per diamond

yeah 60s would be plausible for the folded jubilee

Aftermarket rocks don't add much value afaik, weight might be there but hard to tell colour & at that size not worth assessing individually etc etc

If I did go for diamonds I kinda dig this red example :)

Haha now you got my curiosity, is yours offering in same ballpark as the red one? :)

69ways · 28 October 2017, 02:16 AM

More or less yes

A thousand dollar watch with a lot of aftermarket parts.

If the movement is original it would be one that parts for repair are in very short supply.
