Got my package today. I got 2 @ $250 and 1 @ $150. Did I get value for my spend? Yes. If I sold all three I would likely come out ahead. Did I nab one of the top tier watches? No. I got a Amand Nicolet blue diver on bracelet, A480AGU-BU-MA4480AA. I'm not terribly familiar with the brand, bu it's a nice diver, looks a lot like my Squale as far as quality. This came in a rather heavy box for those who are focused on package weight. I got a Orient SDB0D002D0. Black dial on bracelet. Display caseback. I got a Panzera Breuer 44, a nice looking dress watch, if a little large for my idea of a dress watch. Automatic, display caseback. Pictures:

<edit> After trying it on the Panzera is not for me- I like my dress watches a bit more dainty. 44mm works on my wrist but in a dress watch it doesn't meet my aesthetic. I'm open to trades if anyone is interested in it and got something in the drop they don't particularly care for. It doesn't have to be something fancy, I'll happily trade it for a watch of lessor value to avoid the hassles of an ebay or Craigslist sale. <edit edit> Now that I have looked at it more closely and read a bit about the company I'm quite excited about the Armand Nicolet JS9. It's a very interesting watch from a historic Swiss company. I came out very well in this lottery!

PeteHI say Congrats is in order because that Armand is listed for at least $1,000 on eBay!

PeteHI understand if you are barely happy if you don't know Armand Nicolet... That's a win in the 250...

VricYes, I looked it up and it seems it is quite the value! It's just a brand I am not familiar with. I didn't realize out of the box it had a ceramic bezel, that's a nice touch!

goofydanishI figured that out. At first I did a scan and used models of that brand seem to go for $500. I didn't realize this particular model was nicer.
