Cant take my eyes off this thing.. just took some pictures this morning, hope you like them...

Cheers






Beautiful, period. Love it.

Much more for this one!! Try $150-175K now!! For one with pushers $75-90K or so depending on watch condition etc. Try finding a mint screw down let alone getting a good price on one!
