Not a watch you see every day and at the price a bargin of a price. Not I do not know they seller. Was tempted myself but no not going for 42mm but if it was 44mm I'd be jumping. LOL :D

Another deal and a fairly rare find is a Daniel Mink 200M Chronograph Diver @ $425.

Slightly different color than mine, but a great watch!

 

MINE....

I've had plans for one of those DM chronos for a while, thinking about how nice that would look in a planet ocean chrono styled case!

here ya go Oscar! I don't think it looks too bad with the original hads either, they are shaped like genuine folex hands so they are always reflecting/shaded and are easy to see in any light.

Like I said I was tempted but 42mm even though a OK size on me I just prefer bigger anymore. I may regret not getting it though. A rather scare piece as Chris pointed out.

I have the lume dial pilot the Robert Magnum and love it. Another scarce one. ;)

There is a lot of drama about how I ended up with the Magnum instead of the Magnum II, I bought the very last Magnum II and an empty box arrived at my door!!

Robert sent me a Magnum he had stashed away to replace it!

Mine has a laco branded rotor which makes perfect sense when you take a look at the laco model that just happens to use the same case crown etc... and cost twice as much and not have nearly as good of lume!

I am pretty sure we got the better deal with the Roberts!

same here...I believe they all had a Laco signed rotor and at $295. NIB they were a steal...the brand was always rumored to fall under the Steinhart name....wish they had more imo....I have seen some new ones but they look like Asian movements....I also had a Squaremaster that I sold a couple years ago with the same Laco engine woohoo.gif
