Is that WEMPE LE?

If it's an LE then it would have to be I think, but with those pictures, your guess is as good as mine. SHame, because we all know about my fetish for LEs!

I'd like to see a few more (closer up) pics of that too.

No papers though bizarrely. :? And the seller has some dodgy feedback in places too.

Never heard of such an edition, maybe a special for a group or something? Looks like a blue dial, wish also there was a larger photo. Of course, it's a 2005, so it has the smaller size and 20mm lug size.
It really would be something if the Steelfish was a GMT, same movement as the Colt GMT, I think 74, I could really go for that. Would make the Steelfish even more of a specialty piece, sort of like the Blackbird in the Windrider line. Of course, it would add a few hundred to the price because of the movement.
Cheers,
Carl

Thanks for photos. If you can just take a photo of the back it would be great. :thumbsup:

That is really nice looking. I wonder how many of each dial color they made.

I think there were 50 white and 50 blue, but I'm relying on memory, part of my brain is saying that there were four colours which would be black and maybe yellow?

Come to think of it, I'm not sure I put this on the LE list yet.

Wow! I wish they would do that all over again - with the new 44mm Steelfish, that is an awesome combo with the GMT.
Cheers,

Carl

I was right, and wrong. It is white and blue, but it's 100 of each, not 50.
