On ebay for $8000
Is it a Premier case? Is any of it original?
Movement looks to be in very good condition

Watch has unsigned movement which is huge issue but rest is correct except for the price, wildly overpriced!!

Could have been a later assembly possibly from parts as the company faded in 70’s but... 50’s era should undoubtedly have signed movement. Rest is fine. 50’s era 777’s are rare no doubt but unsigned movement is a red flag. Price is regardless far too much. My 2 cents....

I won't mind going all out for it especially because it's not seen on every turn...

i guess if you like it who am i to tell you what to spend your money on, but a ridiculous amount of money to spend on a watch like this IMO. Expenses watches should have some significance/relevance/importance to the brand, and this doesn't. Find an all black Navi, an AVI 765, or an equally nice premier at 1/3 of the cost.
