FS: Orfina Porsche Design model 7176S *PIC*

Vintage Orfina Porsche Design chrono with Lemania 5100 on original bracelet. The watch was refurbished in December 2012 by an expert Swiss watchmaker. The case was re-sandblasted and the movement serviced. The red chrono seconds hand and the chrono minutes hand were repainted because of excessive paint loss. The condition of the watch is excellent. It runs very well and is extremely accurate with the chrono functions working correctly.

The watch makes a very good impression but may not be for the serious collector. I have used it as a regular wearer on a rotational basis and it is ideal for that. Much cooler than any modern chrono in my opinion. I want £800 for the watch, which is a good price if the value of the perfect 8 inch bracelet is considered. The caseback is excellent.

Reliable shipping from South Africa is quite expensive but I will charge the buyer only £30 or the equivalent in another currency. I will only use the most reliable form of shipping that is available. I can unfortunately only accept a wire transfer as only one bank in South Africa is allowed by law to channel incoming foreign currency from Paypal to its customers. I am not with that bank.

I am not a frequent buyer but I have done business with 2 prominent members on this forum. I will only do business with a buyer with good references.
