Mine came in a thin mil std cardboard box with the watch in a plastic bag. Reminded me of work, lol. I threw that stuff away. There were no papers. The watch comes with the bracelet and the black web strap that came with it.
Asking $750 shipped in CONUS. I accept Bank wire and cashiers check. Please contact me by email at bsiebenthall@yahoo.com.
Thanks for looking,
Bruce

One watch doesn't make a spree JJ, and it was definately NOT a mistake!

I guess demand has gone down, I am looking at getting one of these for a few dollars less. There are several versions of this watch out there now, so is the original still the hot one to have, or is the latest version the one everyone wants?

I don't know, really, as I see a lot of different versions on the forums. The thing I didn't care for about the SAR was that it felt top heavy to me. I think it coulda done with 22mm lugs instead of 20mm. Might help balance the heavy head a bit better.
Cheers,
Bruce

Excellent point, Bruce. I've owned two very top heavy watches...a TAG Link and the Breitling Crosswind. Both had 22 mm lugs which distributed the feel, weight and balance of the watches in a much better manner. :thumbsup:
