| This is what it looked like when I got it. Who knows where it had been over the years. But, the movement holder was missing, the stem was broken, it needed a new crystal and the dial was dingy. It cost about $2,000 for repairs and for the dial to be refreshed and a new crystal. |

| This is the first one I bought. I like the weight and quality construction. It has an automatic movement and at about $500-$600 new, I think this was a good value. |

| I bought this one too. These are affordable quality watches. |
