Re: Very rare yes, but not unheard of...

Hi Al, OOOHHHH THAT ONE....and I sold this to you????? I must have been drinking, can I buy it back please? Just Kidding. It is a beautiful piece, it actually came from a collector in Italy. It's a long story, Ebay did not exist in Italy back in 1995. They had a Italian Auction house on Line, ( IBAZAR.IT ) which gave me a lot of oppourtunity to learn Italian, However, the final result was worth it I belive. I think you would agree.......Joseph.

: This is my Movado Sub Sea chronograph with the
: Zeinith 146HP movement, which is a rare
: enough piece in this condition, but what
: makes it truly unique is the double tachys
: as shown. Other, more common examples all
: have the inner-most tachy on the dial but
: this is the only known version in existence
: with the second chapter ring type in the
: case, making it exceedingly rare and sought
: after by collectors who without question
: inhabit the highest levels of the
: horological accumulation obsession, one of
: which in particular has been known to begin
: foaming at the mouth and convulsing when I
: bring this beauty to the table.
