Incoming Hulk! Last Flip
Have been on a flipping kick for the past few months. Flipped an explorer II for a $1500 profit and purchased a GMT II ceramic. I posted pictures of the GMT previously on here and noted that the watch was previously PVD coated. With the coating removed, there were some major flaws. PVT residue on the crown guard, heavy polishing throughout, PVD on the inner bezel.
The jeweler that sold it to me gave me full value to trade it back in to him. I traded it in and picked up a 116610LV mint condition with box and papers. Love this watch so far. Pictures do not give the dial justice. |

I said the same thing when I bought my sub lv ........that was two flips ago! Nothing about the watch was special to me after a few days of stairing at the green! As long as you have a few other watches to rotate you may be fine! Btw, I wanted to flip it so bad I lost money on it.
