Andrew Michaels would appear to have some NOS examples of these in a variety of dial colours, including blue. :wink:


And sponsor mboverst posted one here less than 2 weeks ago. They come up fairly often.

Hang on a sec! Hotmog, TomP and I were recommending the last iteration of the old SuperOcean that was produced around 2008-2009, with the outlined numerals. It's true SuperOceans do come up for sale relatively often, but not the A1736006's. I had sent Andrew Michaels a note back in August as their website does show images of all four colours of that model, but Richard confirmed that they had one NOS coral/orange dial version for sale and nothing else.

I apologize, I should have been more precise - a lesson for me :oops: ; so charlieH, let me recommend the A1736006 version of the SuperOcean to you. :)

An update for anyone interested

I have a black dial SQ B1 (again) incoming soon from BUK :lingsrock:

But this is NOT my birthday watch, so still looking.

Currently favouring:

Blackbird
NEW Seawolf (black baton dial)
Older Superocean as recommended
NEW Superocean Chrono 44
Avenger GMT

Plenty of time!

Nick

Are you considering a yellow strap Nick?

No mate, not to my taste.
Yellow dial, yes, but straps, nah!
