Ok I need to sell her so I dropped the price another $500 to blow it out either here or other forums etc..Got something in my sights....you know the drill..


FS- Oh man, I'm letting one of my prized pieces go in search of the next big score...This is the very elusive Anonimo Dino Zei San Marco Landing Forces Watch, in Near Mint to Mint Shape...I can't find a mark on the watch at all as when i bought it, it was basically brand new condition. I haven't worn it nearly as much as i should have so its in the same shape today. These are near impossible to find anymore and when they pop up, they are being listed at a premium such as on auction sites etc for $7k. Even after trying to haggle with a few online sellers, they lowest i could get them was around $5,500. On the forums, they hardly ever surface and still command a pretty good premium it seems. Mine is in better condition than you will ever find one (if you actually could find one:)

It comes with the Original Dino Zei Wooden Box, pillow, OEM Brown Kodiak strap (with cool metal inserts) with Dino Zei signed buckle, Instruction manual and undated warranty booklet. I will also throw in the VERY sought after Hex screwdriver tool that many Anonimo collectors have trouble finding. This is used to change out the straps very easily if you desire.

I have great references and have done deals on many of the watch forums as well as ebay over the years. Active member of many forums and happy to provide references upon request. This will be a special piece for somebody that understands how unique it is indeed. The fact that it has so many amazing functions alone is super cool, not to mention the fact that the case work is simply sublime.

Selling for a super reasonable $4000, Shipped CONUS Only priority overnight Insured, Bank wire or Paypal you cover paypal fees. Please no crazy lowball offers as i will politely decline :) Or i may have a good laugh and write back to you with an even lower offer.... :)




Specifications taken from the web and the Anonimo Book:

Anonimo (Dino Zei) San Marco Drass 12000 Watch
Model #mod-12000

Watch Case Manufactured in AISI316 Plus nonmagnetic stainless steel, sand-blasted finish. The case is then submitted to the process of plasma coating in vacuum chamber through deposition of wolfram oxides Monobloc construction in which a sole element works as central part of the case (Carrure) and back cover, closed by one bezel on the upper side. Bezel closing is ensured by five external stainless steel Thorx screws which guarantee a good and easy grip and a superior tightening (30%) compared to comparable screws with traditional head. Bayonet quick tightening main crown at h. 2 ( for time setting and winding); screw tube; secondary crown with screw tube, at h. 4 for rotation of the internal ring, set on the dial. Screw locked push button between h. 9 and 10 to allow regulation of the second time zone.

Wrist strap is provided with hexagon-headed security screws and one lower screw with shaped head. This last screw allows the access for the release of the winding stem. All the above mentioned components are manufactured in stainless steel. Flat upper sapphire crystal. Oversized round dial for optimal visibility. Rotating external ring with hours scale, preceding and successive to hour H. The main hours indexes are treated with yellow luminous coating for a superior day/night readability. The secondary dial is misaligned for the 24 H GMT and day/night function, with hour indexes treated with white luminous coating to differentiate from the main hours. Hours, minutes, sweep seconds and 24h GMT hands treated with luminous coating; the power reserve hand is painted in contrasting colour with the dial. Wrist Strap Manufactured and hand finished in patented Opera Kodiak process calfskin to allow for extended immersions in fresh and sea water (24 continuous hours). Exclusive Dino Zei buckle in stainless steel.

You know, eric - of all the Anonimo watches that I drool over - THIS is the one I most wish I had. Rare as hen's teeth and such a cracker watch. Not enough funds in the watch account to get serious with y'all about this one, but couldn't resist saying how much I like this DZSM.

Good luck with your sale!
