SBS Mil Sub just listed

These do not come up very often so I just thought I would post it here for those interested. Non original hands by the looks of things, otherwise looks OK.

Someone has already offered the Seller £15k, so it will be interesting to see what it closes at!

IMHO It is missing the original hands and bezel insert. If I recall a few months back I saw 1 change hands for 60-80k like this 1.

I am guessing more than GBP 25k, there are so far 11 bidders - if it had the original hands I would guess a lot more. As Pav mentioned they would be almost impossible to find

Impossible? expensive? The hands and bezel insert are out there.The only issue I see is that the buyers dont want to pay what the sellers want.The last set I saw for sale was offered at 50k USD not cheap but available for sale.Its to rich for me Ill stick with common watches.Not too long ago 1 like this sold for over 50k

I expect the winning bidder is over the moon!
I expect it will turn up at Bonham's or Antiquorum or somewhere soon!

$31,433.89. Is that a deal? It looks like someone didn't know what they were doing when they removed the case back and scratched the heck out of it. Here's your sign.
