Has anyone seen a seconds hand like this one before on this model? It’s got a point at the end.

The minute and the seconds hand are wrong on this watch. Hour hand is OK. The minute and second sweep hand are from a Navitimer 806. Correct hands super hard to find.

I think you’ll struggle to find them. I wouldn’t buy it. I never buy a watch with the wrong hands or a damaged dial.

I don’t think you can write every watch off because it needed impossible to get hands. Dial is good though as is the case?

You asked, and I gave you my opinion. If you don’t want the feedback, don’t ask for it! Bad dials and wrong hands kill the value and collectability of an otherwise nice watch.

Went at auction for £2300 + 25% fees. Over priced for an incorrect 810.
