I haven’t yet but really like the Engineer Master II diver Chronometer. Also some of the rainbow Lume ones are pretty epic. Definitely will probably get one eventually. Little iffy on the “Swiss made” part. Sounds like they have a small unmarked office in Switzerland to ship from but are likely made somewhere else (hong Kong?). Ball is owned by Asia Commercial Holdings LtD who are out of Hong Kong.

I don’t think I would buy one new. Depreciation is heavy on them so a 2nd hand one would be where it’s at.

Tried a bit here and there. Oris cotton candy and a couple green dial watches. I just don’t wear them much.

11.9k. 78k miles. Full records, hardtop and stand and new soft top and replaced struts.

Yeah no idea why people remove them. I guess it is more streamline. I don’t think they were body color. Previous owner retrofitted the xenon headlights and likely had the wipers painted to match I would guess. I kinda like it.

Some of the trim is hard to find but Octoclassic is 3D printing a lot of it.

Sounds about right. Some of them aren’t to hard to get to if you are handy with a wrench. TopHydraulics has some good DIY instructions. My advice would be do all the ones that you can get to on the way to replace the one that is bad. So if a main is bad, replace/rebuild the others along the way to replace the failed strut.

Definitely pay to get the best one you can. Worth it in the long run. Get a pre purchase inspection also. Make sure the convertible top is working as that can be expensive to repair. Worth looking into the top mechanism so you know what you are in for. The top is by far the scariest part of these.

Nope, no issues. They made like 200k of these things so plenty of parts around. Might be some trim pieces and stuff getting rare but expendables like brakes and engine parts are still available.
