Title: Internet Zodiac experiences
Post by: tikiman on November 07, 2023, 06:18:10 PM
New to your site, thanks for the add. I've been looking for a "fair" priced vintage Seawolf for some time. When I say "fair priced", I don't mean dirt cheap, but rather something that represents what I'm looking at. I see lots of absolute junk & near junk at ridiculous prices. IE: some guy on eBay is posting a Seawolf bezel for a sum, which,  if proportional to value,  would make the entire watch about $6K. I suppose there's someone out there that doesn't know that $1. is not worth more than 100 pennies!  So, I'm probably consigned to building one myself. I'm a novice watch tinkerer and am reasonably successful at full teardown & rebuild. As i've read, the 70-72 movement is based on an AS-1687/1688 movement so getting started shouldn't be too difficult. Hoping this site & forums will enable me to attain one of my grail pieces.

You are a wise man. Never pay more than you can sell it for later.
