Yep. Again, red is more common, but no problem with a black date wheel. Nice watch by the way! (I have a soft spot for the cosmo as I have recently acquired a display back version). Again, if you can get serial number and / or movement pics it will help. |

I've had two of them over the years. Paul |

Regards Toni[/quote] I would think $1800-$2400 is fair for a good example. Maybe a few hundred more for a mint one. $4200 seems high to me. Paul |
