And they accuse me of being an enabler! Stunning watches chip, that site is amazing. Thank God I don't have a credit card!

Well... I do have a credit card but I have never bought a watch on credit, always cash. It's a habit I am not willing to break.

Very nice Chip, thanks for that link, box and papers are a nice extra as well, mine doesn't have box and papers but they are difficult to find that way and when you do you pay a really nice premium.

Yeah Nicko, nothing about that site screams "inexpensive". I am even afraid to ask what something like that with box and papers would fetch. Or the one from the movie I never heard of.

That movie watch sure has some mileage on it. And they call the condition "good"! I call that "found at a garage sale in the bottom of a pile of junk".

And the second one is beyond polished!

Damn! I would LOVE to have this set in my safe right now: Steve, I always understood your reasoning for changing watches but the image above makes it more clear than ever (with or without the box set). One of the ultimate vintage Rolex watches to own, hands down.

Nice RED subs - pity about the top, over-polished CG on the second one, but nice MKIV dial. First one just needs a new plexi I think, unless that's dial damage under there as well... Never heard of the film either (shame it wasn't Jaws, and from Speilberg to Scheider!)
