Hey guys,
Just wanted to show you my latest acquisition.  I bought this watch off Ebay from a gentleman in Switzerland.  It is quite unusual because the case and bracelet are definitely from the Aubry Era.  The dial has the Synchron Logo.  Also, it is a 300T vs the 250Ts that are listed in Doc Pete's Book.  I have had a few over at the Doxa forum that have questioned it being "put together" from different watch parts.  I really do not think that it is for several reasons.  First, the whole watch has aged the same.  Dial and case and all the Patina match.  Second, it is almost flawless.  I don't think it has ever been worn.  Not even really a scratch on the clasp.  Why would you replace the dial or have a redial on a never-worn watch.  Third, is its size.  It is only 38mm being quite a bit smaller than my other vintage 300T.  I truly believe it is a transition watch that was made right after Doxa was bought by the Aubry co. from Sychron.  I have very little doubt that it came from Doxa exactly this way.

Anyways, I just thought it was a rather unusual watch, and you guys might like a couple pics.  BTW, I got a rather good deal on it.............

I don't think I will sell it, but I will keep you in mind;)

I really love that Zeno Diver you are speaking about.  Trouble is, I have so many dang Doxas, I can't justify buying one............mistake.gif

Fantastic hand6.gif hand6.gif I really need to start reading the daily emails I get from eBay of all the Doxa's for sale. I  have been deleting them without reading as I know if I read them I will end up buying another.

Very Nice Steve .I am willing to wager that it cost more than 8 dollars plus tax.I hope someday to have an orange faced watch .I shall then be able to pair it with a dark blue strap.
