Sharpen your eyes Fred, the outer scale ring on on the dial on Rene's watch is basically destroyed, not to mention the redone hands, and the replaced IMO non original sliderule.

I agree that the numbers on Rene's watch looks great, but what's great looking numbers worth on a somehow ruined dial ?

The numbers & hands on Rene's black/black one, has as previously mentioned been redone.

The one at Watchclub looks to be in perfect condition, and he'll get what he is asking, as I basically get the same prices.

And they are not the rarest by the way, this one is.:
