Bottom line is bottom line. If it sells lookin like that you know the gurus at the wizards castle are rubbin their hands in glee at the next offerin. Pizz

Have done my share of the oldies, just sold my 063 which brings me to almost none. BUT wait, just got in a old school 087. Life is good(not to quote a old member) when I can mod a new-old school piece up. To say I love the hunt is sayin it mildly....

Probably why he`s selling it, he gave up too.

I like the free economy shipping in the ad...

First up, a nice lookin watch. I`m no expert but been around awhile and 99.9% of the 2-leggers couldn`t tell you a rep Rolex from the real deal. They just claim they can... The boxes though are usually so-so compared to the gen. Put it on a nato and loose that crappy bracelet, or some other strap.

Saw that one, now 2 vintage sharkies to be had there.

I modded a planter with a large plant in the house. Top half is the greenery, bottom half of the pot is hollow and store em there when not around for awhile.

It does look like a victim of a scavenger. Pizz

Saw that one, asked him for some pics of the sides and questioned him on the "saffire" crystal replacement and from whom. All in all though the case & bezel looks to be in good condition, Imo the glass is original and just spoutin off for the sale end of it. Dial looks nice too... Hope this puppy brings about some premium bids in the end.

Chieftang is a modder ( has a section ) here who does coatings (ar) for crystals. I had a Panda awhile back, do get it on the bracelet and when you can the ar done on it. Takes the panda to the next level.

Thanks for the reminder, had a couple of different models of them back in the day and those were great watches and accurate indeed.

No I wouldn`t, Dealers are selling this service with just their word. Guess what, if it does crap out just send it back to China.... And months later find out if it made it back to them if at all... And if not your s**t out of luck. Save your hard earned money and send it to a trusted watchsmith listed here ( Vac is in the States ) and have piece of mind for your money spent. Pizz

Hey DG welcome, my neighbor is a collector of props. Was just trying on his Blade runner coat he has, very cool... Pizz

After some time looking around for a Panda (racing?) dial Daytona with some twists I finally settled on one and ordered from Silix. First time in years I have ordered from them, semi-recent new owners and other changes I`m sure but they had the best price hands down. Other dealers had this one around $288, Silix, $208. Fast communication and qc pics also. First impressions are, I LIKE it. Just what reps are all about, low cost for a nice bang on the wrist. Almost went with the matt pvd version finish for the watch but those were not dark enough black ( think pencil finish on Panerai), I wanted a black bezel like the vintage Newman models had and this has it. Have gone back & forth on changing the pushers & crown to steel, but for now it stays. Also maybe the sub hands changed out for reds. A few pics of it, have a couple of different Natos coming in soon to try out also.
