New arrival today. 1969 according to serial number. No real issues other than no service history and a scratched crystal. Working perfectly. It'll be going out to Craig for a service and new crystal after the holidays. Haven't had one of these in quite some time.

I was lucky to get it and the pictures didn't do the watch justice. Some sellers don't realize how important it is to have good, clear, pictures but it does present an opportunity for buyers that know what they're looking at and are willing to take a chance.

Congrats Paul Well Done. What you said about picture quality to our advantage is absolutely true. I picked up this this 1970 Ref 1191 for $500. When I got it it is beautiful. It needs service, a new crystal, fly backed centered and the pushers replaced. Here is the ebay link.

Here it is the day it came in.
