I bought this a while ago for some reason, received it, put it in a draw and promptly forgot about it until i stumbled across it last night while looking for something else, don't ask me what i was looking for because i forget 

I have done nothing to it apart from change the pusher and crown gaskets to see if it works, i havent even cleaned it as i only rediscovered it last night.
The "good,
The "Bad",
During the last 24 hours i have reset the chrono a few times with no problem but just this very min i reset it and the small sub dial hand flew off, bugger
IMO bracelet, crown assembly, decent case and clean movement make this a decent project watch.
Please note if you are looking for the perfect grail then this is 100% not for you
Asking $130 shipped in the UK paid by paypal with buyer either paying the 4% fees or paypal gift, watch and I are in the UK, please pm/email if you need any other details.

The "good,
- original bracelet fits my 7 1/4" wrist
- After winding it up last night it has ran and kept reasonable time.
- The case is in pretty good condition and not polished.
- The pepsi bezel is decent (see pic).
- The movement is clean.
- The original crown is complete with spring and gear.
- The inner bezel which is pretty good rotates with the crown.
- Day/date works fine.
- Chrono seems to work fine and snaps back to zero.
- Pushers work ok.
The "Bad",
- Crystal is terrible.
- H/M and small sub dial hands poor, sweep second hand looks decent.
- Dial not great with a blemish in the sub dial.
- Even though running i imagine it needs servicing.
