Completely real Complications 19, and an extremely under appreciated watch. If this had a steel bezel and was priced accordingly it would have been a great seller.

Current list:

Head only - $14,650
w/leather $14,685
leather w/deploy - $15,095
croc - $15,240
croc w/deploy - $15,470
rubber w/deploy - $15,100
speed bracelet - $16,380

Roff - I don't know if this has been asked before, but how come this model uses English for the days and months when the 1461 uses French?
