redwatch Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 Found this one on fleabay today It looks as though it's had a rough, rough life.
dbutlerman Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 It looks like it's been through Nanuq's capable hands
dbutlerman Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 "Rough, rough life"??? That baby is pristine!
Ronin Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 Shhhhhhhhh....... I am the high bidder on that. Saw it this morning. Was looking to snag it for parts or restoration.
Nanuq Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 Good luck! Let me know when your package arrives.
ehfour Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 That will buff out... Ronin, if you do buy it please dont re-polish or refinish the case or dial
Ronin Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 It has been bid up to a level where I think I AM OUT...
dbutlerman Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 And it's still got 5 days left...this one ain't going to go cheap
Nanuq Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 It has been bid up to a level where I think I AM OUT... Whaaaaaaaaaaa...?? $262 and you're out? Where's the Samurai spirit?! We have a saying here... GO BIG, OR GO HOME. So what's it gonna be? Man or Mouse?
Ronin Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 I have a feeling the crown is unusable. Looking at the blow to the case/crown area. Also, someone in Alaska already hooked me up with a bracelet . Putting the money elsewhere.
Nanuq Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Well I can't argue (much) with that. I have a SUB300 with the domed crystal that sports a pathetic little button crown. I've found a source for replacement tap-10 screwdown crowns and tubes, and one looks about right. Interested?
pizzanooo Posted June 17, 2011 Report Posted June 17, 2011 Cripes man, bracelets have gone for higher than the current price. Then you get a bezel, dial, case, crystal ect...

Nanuq Posted June 17, 2011 Report Posted June 17, 2011 Check it out here: http://www.ofrei.com/page_156.html Sterile, 6mm with press-fit tube. #60517
Ronin Posted June 17, 2011 Report Posted June 17, 2011 Nice. I have not been able to figure out if my 300T "Sterile" Synchron, NON-Screwdown is original. There is mention of it in Dr. Pete's book.
Nanuq Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 I read that Synchron went to non-screwdown crowns when they took over. I rarely see a signed Doxa crown, so I think you've got a winner there.
