Re: Remember the 'rarest of the rare 740303G on Ebay?

Well done Thomas, fantastic watch. I would've bought this one myself given the funds but alas no, my piggy bank wouldn't stretch that far...

David H

: A little story for you all, bear with me!

: Remember the 'rarest of the rare 740303G on Ebay?

: Well..........

: I recently sold my 73633G and soon realised how much I missed it. I
: love the manual Monacos an the 'greys' especially as I find
: nothing better pairs as well with anice grey business suit.

: So I discussed the 740303G that has been the subject of much
: discussion on here with the owner and did a deal that I was
: comfortable with and felt was fari given the condition of the
: watch.

: Not the easiest negotiation I grant you but after a rocky start the
: seller was very helpful and arrange shipping in accordance with
: my instructions to allow me to insure the delivery etc.

: An so that brings us round to this morning and the FedEx van
: pulling up outside my office.

: I know there had been discussion regarding the consition etc. and
: of course it's not NOS (and to give the seller credit was never
: really described as such) as it has been worn a few times and
: shows minute signs of this.

: However, I would be as bold to suggest it is mint. Everything feels
: very tight and it has a feel to it like no other manual Monaco
: I've had my hands on.

: So to cut a long story short I'm very pleased with it and its'
: currently on my wrist!

: A few quick snaps in my office.
