I saw this for sale on one of the forums but it was a little rich for my blood. Now my wife saw my emails to owner of it and decided to buy it for me for Christmas.

So now it on the way to my house I just need to decide if I want her to ship it overseas to me. Here are some pics the previous owner took of it. I really did want this watch but I was trying to restrain myself from it. So please enjoy the pics, Terry.

Thanks guys! This is actually a Tridente chrono which is a big and sturdy watch. She is a beauty! I am thinking of putting a silver insert in it or a SS bezel.

Nice chrono. I'd be real careful about having anything shipped overseas, especially if you're in the sandbox. Too many horror stories about things disappearing in the mail or peoples packages being opened. If you are in the sandbox, then I'd have it insured for at least replacement cost if you decide to have it shipped. All my packages were insured and I had no problems.

I honestly haven't had any issues in the 2 years total I have been over here having stuff shipped to me. But there is always a first time I guess. I have also always had my stuff insured too. Thanks for the advice though.

I had a MarcelloC Nettuno3 GMT - BNIB...it was a great watch, felt good and accurate. The only problem I had was with the seals....was in Vero Beach, FL in a heavy rainstorm and got moisture under the crystal...it was probably an anomoly, but you might want to have it pressure tested.

That is a beauty though!!!
