I Have been chasing this piece for years, I would've purchased used years ago, but I finally tracked down a NEW one, So in the end my persistance paid off. It's the hand cranker DEBAUFRE NAV B-UHR II (A mini grail of mine) |

I almost purchased a used 1 more than once but I said no I WILL find a new 1..I stumbled on to this one by chance. It paid off in the end though BNIB no DNA ......lol |

You know, new and new...Even a Rolls Royce is driven by someone at the factory before you buy it brand new... For me , there's sometimes an advantage to buy second hand as I would pay for the real value: Because I don't want to pay for the name or the prestige... Offcourse it concern other more popular brands mostly... Still, I understand your point: But it's hard to get brand new models who are no longer produced. Your patience paid at last! |

Congrats on the New Arrival William!!! These are definitely on my radar as a "must add"... Very nice choice with the hand cranker version, which for some reason is my preference over the auto... Enjoy!!! |
