 Decided to clean out some of the pieces I just don't seem to wear anymore.  First to go is my Helson Tortuga with an orange dial.  This is number 85 from the initial run that sold out quickly.  Lume is like a torch.

Price: $500 via PayPal, shipping included - US only, no trades.

Specs are:
Case: Brushed and polished 316L surgical stainless steel; case width 43 mm -length 50.5 mm -  height 16 mm - lug distance 22 mm.
Screwed crown 6.5mm 3 gaskets
Automatic helium escape valve
Sapphire crystal - 3 mm thick - inside AR coated.
Water resistance: 1000m/3.300 ft
Dial, hands and bezel  coated with Swiss  SuperLuminova C3
Strap: Comfortable 22 mm rubber strap plus  a brown leather
Bezel: bidirectional 120 clicks - 2 designs incl. bezel change tool; black bezel is on the watch - steel bezel is in the box
Movement: 24 Jewel Japanese Miyota 9015 automatic; black date wheel - power reserve 40 h.

Comes with the full kit, as shown.  The leather strap was never used.  There are two tiny scratches by the HE release valve.  I tried to capture them in the photos below.
