Well,
It is time to throw this back in the pond as they say. WIth the recent Sinn coming into the collection one really needs to go, and the problem is I like all of them a lot so it gets harder to let one go. I have had 3 SDs at one time or another and I will say this is my favorite of the bunch. While SD big, it wears a lot better due to the lighter weight. This one has the sun burst grey dial which is really a stunner and the lune is amazing. ETA movement. The case is a gun metal grey that looks nice against the lighter dial. These are very rare and I think he made very few. I am the second owner, the first owner did not have it long.
Disclosures - the bezel and crystal are very clean. As with most Ti watches and this finish in particular, Ti picks up marks. There are no scratches you can feel at all (and frankly they look worse in photos). In most cases you don't notice them at all but they are there. The case back has some marks , the release valve side also shows a few marks including a longer one. There are some marks around the lugs as well. Again, in most lighting situations you really don't notice but I want to make sure there is full disclosure. There is a little play in the bezel but that has been the case with all of my SD watches. I don't have hosting here so I have one photo posted. I am happy to send a ton more if needed. Just let me know.
The watch comes with the Helsofrane style rubber strap (very nice) and I will throw in a custom leather/velour vintage strap with a PVD buckle (a pricey one-about 250). It is about a 125/75. It is a military green color and looks nice with the Helson. It also comes with the cool allen wrench strap tool and tube case (not shown in photos).
$850 (includes pp and shipping). I am going to stay pretty firm on this price due to the rarity of the piece but will entertain best offers. I have excellent references. Buy it before I change my mind and keep it.
Any questions, please let me know. US sale only for this one.Attachment: Helson-1211.jpg (Downloaded 138 times)
