Watches - another OCD problem

[Graeme]

If anyone's interested in avant garde haute horologie, Bulgari still have a few examples of the Gefica in stock.

It comes in two models, the Bi-Retro (on the left), which has a retrograde calendar, and the moonphase / GMT (on the right), which I discussed in the previous post.

Both have a 47mm bronze case, 100 metres water resistance, and a crocodile strap.

The local Bulgari boutique is offering a 15% discount on these without even asking. Given they're a discontinued model for around 2010 or 2011, and obviously didn't sell well (the Bi-Retro was a limited edition of 199), I think that there's scope for them to be a bit lot more generous.

The original Gérald Genta editions of the watch were more adventurous with colour, and there's an Art Deco charm to the numbers. I like the white version, and there's one for sale on Chrono24 at the moment.

In Japan now so this had to be the watch to wear.

Yeah, no scheduled flights to space yet…...

I've always got a spare with me just in case.

Can anyone tell me if Sinn watches have sales of any description (maybe in January)?

[rocket]

never seen that they make a sale, they up adjust prices every Aug.

[bertoni]

Thanks Rocket mate. Haven't been able to shake the Sinn thing since you introduced me to the make a few years back! I'm thinking of a 104 St Sa I.
Didn't think they would have any sales to be honest. Thanks for the info on price hikes though. A dealer near me told me they'd be going up again in January. August gives me enough time to save

[rocket]

you are welcome, don't nail me on Aug, that's what they have done in the past, might now a twice a year think, who knows…

Good looking watch.

This is not for everyone but I love mine: 1972 Rolex 1675 GMT Two Tone "Root Beer".

Root beer is yummy @Qinhan

[Qinhan]

Thanks @madmonday  I often wear it on a brown leather strap as well because the two-tone bracelet is sometimes a little too "70's Pimp" for me.

1675?

My 16700 doesn't even compare 

[Tempvs]

Got a few old ones but I don't wear them so much.

[dylantbmayes]

How many butter chicken and beer sessions would it take to 'borrow' one?

[Graeme]

@Tempvs has plenty @dylantbmayes - I'm sure if you "borrowed" one then he wouldn't notice for a while.
