Saw this at a very reasonable price and couldn't resist - love the colouring on the dial! Difficult to photo. Condition not brilliant, but perfectly fit for purpose!

HL65 · 10 March 2014, 08:07 PM

Very nice...Congrats!!

travisb · 10 March 2014, 08:21 PM

Nice pick up!

FeelingTheBlues · 10 March 2014, 08:34 PM

Lovely watch, what material is the band made of?

Congratulations Roger.

Very comfy - more so than my Legacy with Kevlar strap. There's a velcro fastener below the buckle band which stops the buckle rubbing your wrist.

Cool choice Roger.

Nice, congrats!

Cru Jones · 10 March 2014, 09:53 PM

nice! enjoying beating that one up.

conkers · 10 March 2014, 09:57 PM

Thanks everyone, I have thought about sending it in for a service and a case refresh, but there seems little point!

masterserg · 10 March 2014, 10:25 PM

Congrats! She is a beauty! I really like that dial. I think if you send it in for a service / refresh you will have difficulty wearing it for the purpose. I would anyway :)

abnerc15 · 10 March 2014, 10:48 PM

Very nice!!!

orangedial · 10 March 2014, 10:58 PM

Love this reference! One of my favorite classic ROOs. The notched case is fantastic

But I'm rather surprised with this announcement from you

Enjoy the beater my friend!

Yep the plan is definitely to keep this one more than a week!

iLLGT2 · 11 March 2014, 04:13 AM

Don't send it in, you're more inclined having it in this condition, to wear it as you plan to, and not worry ;)

Enjoy

A classic
