Either the close of Seiko collection or start of Bellmatic collection !
« on: January 15, 2012, 12:27:12 AM »
Hello all


I have several Seiko 5s and a couple of pre 5 jobbies. Of late I have wandered off into collecting 50s/60s automatics but this popped up on fleabay and my mouse finger took over me and made me click 'Submit' and before I knew it I am now awaiting my first Bellmatic ! Oh lordy what have I started. My excuse so far is that it will finnish off my Seiko collection and will NOT become the start of a Bellmatic collection !


Item number is
170761746982 (or was)
[size=1.35em]I have no idea if it was a good buy or not and I hope I wasn't bidding against any of you guys.[/size]
[size=1.35em]Any thoughts on it as a first Bell ?[/size]

I saved one of the auction pictures (below) and, for $86, I think you did well with this yellow gold offering. Congratulations!

 :iagree:
 
I think for that price you got hold of a very fine SGP Bell-matic!
 
Oh, do I get to choose? I'd pick start of Bell-matic collection :D
 
Best,
Hermann
