wimpie007 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Link to the sale thread hahahaha: http://link.marktplaats.nl/289822517 Sorry for the google translated version: I laughed my ass off! I have for sale my breitling blackbird! Topwatch it is a high quality, with a 1:1 dial The Asian Valjoux 7750, equivalent to the eta of 7750. it is a steel version with black plate. State info on the last picture which I will explain here. the picture shows that there is no second hand anymore why! : I accidentally dropped the watch, this is why the second hand became stuck, because the thread was broken. also, the bottom button of the chronograph operation function was destroyed by the fall. The watchmaker has reviewed the entire watch and it runs like a top again, and on time! He has removed the seconds hand, because you never used it anyways the broken button has been locked so that nothing can happen to the chronograph! outside those two minor defects this clock is in excellent condition, little or no scratches and dents not at all. I only had this watch for a year, Why do I sell: I'd like a super avenger in 7750 in return buy asia. and has cost 375 euros, and the last repair cost me 50 euros. I ask a bid from 200, You dont see anything from the remedied defects, It's in top condition. Nonsense bids are removed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wimpie007 Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 So maybe it's just me but I am having a lot of trouble seeing the hour hand let alone the seconds. And he really thinks he will get a $200 bid? ken Hehe, i don't see the hour hand too, maybe it's behind the minute hand? and he states the secondshand is removed by the watchmaker because and i quote "you never use that anyway", i laughed my ass off! What kind of a watchmaker is that ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreww Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 And he really thinks he will get a $200 bid? ken Wouldn't doubt that he could get that Ken. In Toronto, Canal St. type reps go for about $150, and the only places I have seen to buy high end 7750 based reps, is through craigslist. These sell for about $600, so in that context, $200 isn't absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmarin.72 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well actually...since the auction runs in EU i think he thinks he can get a 200 euros bid,which equals almost 300$ !!! Besides the missing hand is the main chrono hand and not the seconds hand,which is ok since the chrono does not work anyway since the chrono button is glued!!! And also...whoo cares about the hour hand...this guy has turned this watch into a regulator so the minutes is all that counts!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
