498 : Another Fu 1950 style

[StormTooper4]

Saw one of these 498's  in the wild yesterday . I didn't know these 1950 FU's even existed .

 

 

 

 

 

Though I've mocked 336 shopping trolley character in the past, I really like polish case and the sausage dial of the 498.

 

 It looks better than my brushed 312 ,  I know the 359 has the same case but I never took to that dial .

 

Has anyone see a rep of this ?

That looks great. What dealer did you use. 

 

I think it was a Chinese boutique version only for 2012
