| Post subject: | Real, Fake or rare as hens teeth |
Another newbie here. I have had this watch for about 3 years and never done any research on it. But have been looking for similar models as I like it so much. Can anyone help with info on this watch and where I may find another like it. What I can work out is that it is obviously a Sprint and i think dates from '77 ish http://picasaweb.google.com/tobyartg/Wa ... qEQEqjk5kw You may need to copy and paste link to browser!! If a fake then damn the seller, if it is real I have never seen any others on the market. Watch No is 2051 and serial number is 1437429 if not clear on the images. Thanks for any help[/url] |

Serial dates to 1975, watch looks OK on first blush, but let me check the books - 1970s is not my sweet spot. There are some Sprints around - usual places, keep an eye on the Bay or some of the reputable vintage dealers on line. |

I can't find details of this specific Sprint, but much like the Top Time, Sprint is a range of watches. Can't confirm that this is 100% OK as I can't find a comparison, but I see no problems based on the front and back. Sprint isn't a tremendously valuable watch - probably in the $750 - $900 range. |

Thanks for looking in to this for me. Great help, at least at that estimated valuation I may be able to afford another one!! If I can find one. |
