    The ETA models are much nicer than their Miyota models. I work on the Laco Swiss movement models, and can vouch for the case construction, it is excellent. They used to be priced too low for what they were, in my opinion. They have since raised the prices on these quite a bit.
    I haven't worked on the Miyota version yet, but they are snap casebacks... not my favorite, but they are priced well

    BEAUTIFUL Daytona for sale in FerrariAds!!

    I received a lot of PM's recently asking if I had a clean Daytona. And right now I do not.
    But there is one on FerrariAds ! Priced to move, I wouldn't wait, it doesn't get better than the condition and price of this watch. And NO, I am not the seller :)
    Just passing along the info to my fellow Fchat friends and customers

    Would love to mate, but looking at buying another investment property at the moment and Id rather put $10K towards that over this watch at the moment. :D:D

    Also, I think Rolex watches are a little too small for my wrists. I tried one on 2 yrs ago in Hawaii when I was there for my honeymoon and it was a little small. That was a stainless/black face 1969 Submariner. :eek::eek:

    In stock at the factory, we sold out last week. We should have more Monday. Let me know if you would like one and I can ship it out Monday.
    Email is better for me if you have any questions or inquiries :) I am not on Fchat as much as I would like to be

    Hand decorated and amazing!
    Unworn
    Untouched
    Every screw in the movement is untouched
    Case is flawless, not even a finger print

    Amazing....
    30 years old, maybe older. My customer doesn't remember when he got it, but it was a gift from a client of his. Has the original Burlwood box too

    Now it's mine :)

    Still researching the details. This one is labeled No. 07 on the dial and on the edge of the caseback. So it is a limited edition, movement is a Valjoux cal 72.
    Trying to find out who did all the engraving.
    It's AMAZING

    I forgot to add, it's a solid 18kt gold case.
    Triple date moon phase

    and the owner has a Yenko Camaro, Yenko Nova, Nova SS, a 69 VW bug with delivery miles, and 30 other vintage cars. He is the original owner of them all
