Contaminated watch?

Hey at least you know the lum will last eh?

Not to revive an old thread but I've just stumbled on this model and that dial is killing me! Really looks great! It reminds me of the platinum day date II I tried on about a year ago. At least by color anyhow. I've just spent the last few hours researching the sarb065 and I'm thinking I won't be able to resist putting in an order. Probably the best looking ice blue dial out there under 50k

I made it less than 10 days. Mine just arrived in SF and should be delivered within a few days. That dial.........can't resist.

Enjoyed your write up.

Not a big fan of the dial but on the bright side I would live forever with that accuracy.

PS: Nice pix Mike.

I just got a Cocktail Time from a well-know internet sales site. A very attractive watch and reasonably priced for its looks!

Very nice watch. Do you know if they make a version with Arabic numerals?

Check the Sarb066, it's the closest you'll getf this watch with roman numerals.

Good looking watch. Not easy to find except on Amazon and Ebay.
