Any comments? A bit too perfect for a 60year old... or maybe it's just that good! http://m.ebay.com/itm/331174739257?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVE |

not really a true grail - dial is (admittedly) refinished. lume color isn't really a good fit. |

Too many throw this Holy Grail term around to easy in my opinion. Yes, the VERSION of this watch is Grail but to reach HOLY status one must be of 100% ORIGINAL AND PRESTINE condition. No refinished anything!!! A strap not being original does not bother me of course but the watch itself must be original. This piece here is not a true representation of a pristine surviving example. It is pleasing to the eye and that is what this piece is made to be. Throw in the added douccumentation to sweeten the package and this becomes the "Cash Cow", not a true Holy Grail piece in the TRUE meaning. Wayne |

Is the AOPA - sign correct? It looks like V178-Version to me. "Swiss made T" is definitely not correct for a V72. Cal_11 |

Bill has secondary bidding accounts too ![]() interesting to see he thinks he can turn a decent profit after ebay fees for such an incorrect piece ..... even if he added manual and warranty papers. |
