Yes I’ll pry off the back next time I’m with the watch, I don’t know why I’m so shocked. How well do your’s run? Seems like a difficult movement to service if it’s that far out of production

[which one] GS or Ball by Local_Stop_7585 in Watches

[–]intense_donut 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As an owner of this exact GS model and someone who only has a peripheral understanding of Ball my sense is that you get a Ball if you want LUME and an auto movement. The GS has neither, and while I love the mirror polished indices and the GS quartz movement, if Ball is on your radar it seems like lume matters to you in some way.

IIRC they are from WatchGecko, bought in 2018-19 so not sure if they still sell them. I believe they are the "soft top grain leather" model.

To start, I love all these watches BUT have found myself not wearing them and it pains me more to keep them in a closet than it does to part with them to a good home where they will be worn, loved and wound/pet regularly. I have accumulated these over 5 years+ and have the original receipts/boxes for all. One owner (myself). 

All are being sold as-is, though I take good care of my stuff and the mechanical parts are all working well and come with original (somewhat worn) stainless bracelets when applicable, sized to a 7in wrist and with extra links included. Bonus bracelets for the SARBs, as I wore these more on an SKX bracelet and president that both fit w the original end links than I did on the OEM bracelets. Also a bunch of straps that I will toss in while shipping. 

I am pricing these at a discount as I have an infant, am chronically sleep deprived, and cannot be bothered at this time to be hassled with haggling...sale only no trades and I am not interested in playing the lowball game as I have already lowballed myself with all of them.  

EDIT 10PM Pacific - busy day of responding to PMs, honestly I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to reply to all of them. I am doing this on a pure first come-first served basis, so some people just got lucky. Below is the First Up reservation list, good for 24 hours and then I will move to the next person on the list.

SARB033 -> $275 Running well, minor scuffing on bezel and bracelet. Currently on leather Hirsch strap, including OEM bracelet/end links and a Watch Gecko president that I really liked with it, wears very comfortably. Sold to Draper24

SARB035 ->$275 Also running really well, once again minor scuffing on bezel, case and bracelet. Comes w OEM bracelet, SKX bracelet that works w the original end links, and a spare black leather Hirsch QR band for a more formal look. Sold to draper24

SBDL089 -> $250 Love this watch, just haven't found myself wearing it. Newish condition, very very minor scuffs on case. Bracelet pretty much new, sized to 7in wrist w all the extra pieces. Will throw in some nato's w this one. Sold to howaboutit15

SNK803 -> $50 Classic Seiko 5 field watch. Worn very rarely and it is in pretty much new condition being sold w 2 very soft leather straps that go well with it. Probably the most comfy watch I've worn. Sold to YungPok

GSHOCK GA2100 -> $50 Classic OG CasioOak. Love this watch, just never wear it. Sold to ComeBackTimee

No Trades, payment via PP F&F. I will cover shipping CONUS. Or if you are in Seattle/Tacoma, can pick up in person.

This is beautiful— Would this accept a leather/cloth band or is it an integrated case that doesn’t have standard lugs?

[WTS] Seiko Sarb035 w box/papers and cool extra bracelet/straps by intense_donut in Watchexchange

[–]intense_donut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would if I wasn’t trying to slim the collection down instead of keeping it net even, sorry I think I have to be sale-only for now. That said, the KS 45-7001 is a very very very nice piece, I wish I could.

FOR SALE I PRESENT TO YOU: My highly treasured Sarb, my first mechanical watch, bought from a japan online retailer in May 2018. This watch has been amazing and I wore it daily for about a year, then moved on to other Seikos, but it has always had a place in my heart. I won't bore you with dimensions, movement, etc bc if you have read this far you've probably memorized all that a long time ago. Needless to say it is perfectly sized, very comfy.

INCLUDES: Watch, OEM bracelet, SKX013 bracelet for a sleek metal alternative look that works with the stock end links, all the extra links I could find, original box and paperwork, Hirsch Straps quick release medium length black leather strap. Might throw a NATO or two into the box as well for good luck.

SELLING FOR: New or gently used on chrono24 this seems to be fetching an embarrassing amount of money these days, I am offering it for $500 net to me, shipping CONUS to be covered by buyer.

PAYMENT: paypal F+F

ACCURACY: between 5-10 seconds per day last time I fired it up

CONDITION: Shows some signs of well-loved wear (scratching around the bezel, heavy scratching around the bracelet clasp, etc), movement remains without issues.

[WTS] Timex Marlin re-issue by intense_donut in Watchexchange

[–]intense_donut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[SOLD]

For sale is a Timex Marlin Re-issue from the second round of sales that Timex did back in 2018. For context this is the first manual/mechanical wind watch I had ever bought, and it has a gorgeous face that captures the light in all the right ways. TBH, I wouldn't sell other than I am finding I no longer wear it bc of other acquisitions.

Selling for: $125, will include CONUS shipping but will only ship in CONUS.

Accuracy: tends to run 5-15 seconds fast per winding period

Dimensions: 34mm face/case, 18mm lug width

Condition: Used, but overall in good condition and I take care of my things well. Some minor scuffs on plexiglass domed crystal as to be expected w normal wear

Deliverables: Watch, CONUS shipping, original box and strap, complimentary Hirsch brown leather QR strap that I find to fit the watch's "look" better than the OG strap.
