alligoat Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 The cartel dealers have the full gold vintage Daytonas- with the ST-19 movement. Check out Josh or Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 These DW's come up from time to time on the sales boards. Our very own Pan153 had a beautiful one for sale a while back. I saw one the other day on RWI also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 If you are looking for a step up or have the cash to plunk down on a V72-powered goldie, you might check out some of Phong's wares. Though, before clicking the buy button, I would strongly recommend that you search out some of Ziggy's old threads detailing some of the issues most 'factory-built' frankens arrive with. Definitely, not for the squeamish.........or impatient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Like everything else in life, the better it is, the more it costs!! So the first step is deciding your budget. The Cartel watches use a pretty sturdy ST-19 Venus copy movement. their biggest obvious drawback, the ST-19 is a bicompax movement, so the minute totalizer at 6 is non functional. the 7750 and V-72 movements are all tricompax, so all subdials work. As has been said, the DW watches are no longer available except as a M2M purchase. So it all depends on how much you want to spend. I suppose the Gold cartel models sell for less than 400.00 USD brand new. The DW models used will depending on the amount of modding, go from 500.00 USD to close to a thousand. If the watch has all the spinmaster mods, gen crown/tube, Crystal as well as and ETA 7750, it's going to be close to the top number. When you get into the V-72 movement models, the sky's the limit!! Really good case, genuine parts, oiled and serviced movement and a really good dial, several thousand dollars easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
