here in Europe they all are nearly listed over 10.000 Euro and most of them are polished ...

It just depends when the Tritium dial was replaced. If it was around 1999-2000 it'd be a Swiss only dial. If after that it'd be a Swiss Made.

OP the watch doesn't look bad, it's been polished, but not badly. The lug-holes still look good.

At the price though I'd pass as others have said. At that price I'd want something better, especially considering the service dial.

Thank you for your Input! I will pass on this one.

Also the xtal is wrong it should not have ar on the Cyclops. This has been added during a service.case lines do look rounded but not too bad for it's age

The xtal (crystal)is twisted aswell need to be aligned over the date correctly

Hey TRF!
It is me again:

unpolished? Mate it's completely round. I know prices even for these are insane these days, but I wouldn't spend over €5k myself for that.

Actually if someone was trying to make a Yachtmaster out of a sub they got pretty close.

haha

sillo · 9 May 2019, 04:44 AM

As already pointed out that is nowhere near unpolished. The whole left side of the case looks like mush.

Pay attention to the lug holes. Look how soft the edges are.

Refinishing a case isn’t bad. It’s the poor refinishing of a case that’s a bad thing.

Abarth90 · 19 June 2019, 12:45 AM

Hi its me again,

what do you think about this one guys? With Box and Papers 9750 Euros

sillo · 19 June 2019, 12:50 AM

Got a link to it? Looks decent, but those type of white background photos are not the best. Personally I’d always ask for natural light photos or something with a better background.

Abarth90 · 19 June 2019, 01:14 AM

unfortunately these are the only photos right now ... its from 1993

If it’s from 1993 the dial has been replaced.

Looks really good. Super sharp.

Sandpit · 23 August 2019, 11:47 PM

Looks really nice. They’ve certainly shot up in price haven’t they but if I was spending good money I’d want a nice example like the last one.

Subterranean · 24 August 2019, 12:00 AM

Nice looking watch.

Looking good.

Good on you for being picky and asking questions. You've ended up in a great place with this one. Enjoy it.

Andygmt2 · 24 August 2019, 09:15 AM

Agree with above. Looks decent. I paid c12,700 euros for a GMT 16710 BLRO full set about a month ago.
