Any helpful insight on this watch would be great. I'm thinking about pulling the trigger in the next couple of days (much less than the "buy it now" price. He's sent additional pictures to me as well, it's a black dial, not blue.

Thanks,

Erik

Hi Erik,

Do the additional pics he sent you line up with the watch provenance? Is the serial number of the black dial version the one shown in the warrantee book and on the COSC certficate?

Seems a bit odd he puts up a blue dial but the watch you are buying is a black dial. Did he send enough pics for you to see the entire watch in the round? All sides and views enough to judge any defects.

At this price I woudl hope its not grey market. No erased numbers on the case or anything, is there?

Thats a black dial. The AR makes it look a bit blue though.

A bit blue! :lol:

I know my Chronomatic looks slightly navy blue in certain lights, but this looks real blue. Must have been the flash?
