How Does This 5164 Look?
Hi friends. I'm curious to get some thoughts on this 5164? Does it look polished to you?
https://www.europeanwatch.com/watch/...ber-39051.html I posted another thread with a few others but didn't want to get distracted by the ones people said look really polished. Any tips appreciated. Thanks. https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=820370 |

You can't always go by online photos. EWC is a reputable reseller. Just call them and ask.
$85k for a 5164A these days? Get one before it surpasses $100k |

If you going towards grey market rather add more money and grab 5711 or 5712

If you ask me I feel that bezel has been polished quite substantially/poorly. It has lost almost all its angular edges with its bezel.

The same watch was already included in your last thread... Is this a trick question / thread?
Aquanaut and Nautilus are scratch magnets. How many scratched up examples have you seen at EWC? Any 5+ year old watch w/o scratches that is not unworn has very, very likely been touched up for the sale (and possibly earlier as well). If you want unpolished I'd get a recent brand new / unworn example (rather than a 5+ year old piece). What keeps you from going after Michael Ashton's unworn 5164 from your last thread? |
