Invicta Excursion Chronograph Skeletonized Dial Stainless Steel Men's Watch 15978

Swap!
Why would I sell a perfectly crisp Flagship that came with it's presentation box?To get a perfectly good Admiral that also comes with it's box - and all the other extras - plus a very uncommon dial. It's a caliber 342 so I can check off another box in my quest for one example of each of Longines' in-house automatics. As nice as the Flagship is, there's no room for 2 automatic versions of the same series and the date at 12 caliber 341 will always win out. But it's going to a forum member so I know it'll be in good hands. Bonus: this new Admiral is from 1966 so it's another birthyear watch.

USD5k budget,, which watch?? opinions wanted
Dear all, Hello,,, i've recently become interested in horology as I love all things of exceptional quality. I have about GPB$5000 (USD10,000) to spend on a watch to kick-off what i hope to be a life-long time hobby and i need some advice. sorry for the mistake in the title again my budget is about USD10k...I'm 19 and reasonably tall and lean so a HUGE chunky watch probably wont suit. Also as nice as they are professional styled classic watches like patek phillip and such just aren't my style as i'm more into outdoor stuff, motorsports, yachting and i need something a bit cool with a bit of bling factor but nothing over the top. I want a watch i can dress up with a nice shirt or casual with shorts and I want to be able to wear it a lot and give it a adventurous life and go swimming or whatever (even tho of course i'd normally take it off i don't want to have to worry abt it or my watch to slow me down). It has to last a long time so i can pass it on or whatever.Rolex's are nice and sure

Heuer dial came today!
It's in very nice shape, but definitely not NOS like the seller told me. Unfortunately, New Old Stock is a common exaggeration that people seem to think is synonymous with near mint. Anyway, you can see a few tiny marks on the subdials but that's not problem and pretty much won't be seen by the naked eye on the watch when finished.A little shot with the compressed air will blow off the particles and the lume is nicely aged. It was a little pricy, but cheaper than the price of the redial at the expensive restoration place. When it comes to finding these parts, there seems to be only a couple sources and they know they have you over a barrel. I guess I can't complain - supply & demand, right? With the new dial & bezel insert this is shaping up to be a potentially good looking result.

This looks to be a bargain even at full Buy It Now price.Is there something wrong with it that I'm not noticing?Only problems I can see are the regulator being all he way to one side & no pictures of left sub-dial re-set to top, so it might be a creeper.Still looks like a good price compared to the ones I've seen in London shops for ?1200-?1600
