[/QUOTE]From experience I wont use this company IO bought a Panerai in good faith from them, they told me it was a full set only for me to arrive back in the UK six months later to find no outer box a broken main box, missing screw driver. I rung them and emailed them without any response.

Their loss I'll buy my watches else where from now on.[/QUOTE]

Maybe a post on the shame board wouldn't go amiss?

You could probably get perhaps another £1k on a forum like TRF but with no history or track record, you would probably only be able to do a face to face deal.

The negatives as already mentioned above are no box and papers, looks a little like a thin font replacement bezel, potentially replacement hands as they look very white compared to the hour markers (do they glow at all in the dark?), replacement crown with 3 dots, incorrect bracelet (should be 9315 for open 6's Mark IV) and some visible polishing on the case.

But still a very nice watch and a shame to sell given the family background..... but needs must I suppose.

Jack, you asked a while ago 'looks a little like a thin font replacement bezel, potentially replacement hands as they look very white compared to the hour markers (do they glow at all in the dark?)'. To confirm, yes both the hands and dot on the bezel glow in the dark, where the face does not. I presume this confirms they are replacements?

Most likely they are indeed replacements (not a + value wise...)
