can't get enough of it.

Wow gorgeous piece! I'm looking for a 5513 or 5512. But moving in very cautiously as I'm really really new to vintages!

Care to share how your bought it, and if comfortable enough, can PM share the damage?

Anyone know if there is an increase in price for Oris? Checked gnomon website, from $2059 now become $2560. Other brands from the website also have price increase.

Good sunday .

 

[MrSenG]

Really well taken, shows off the vintage charm with an aura of mystery, makes one wonder what has this watch been through, the adventures and stories it must tell.

can't get enough of it.

Tried on the Oris Sixty-Five green diver, definitely a refreshing change from all my orh lulu pieces.

most probably currency issues. i dont see any change.

。。。Checked gnomon website。。。Other brands from the website also have price increase.

Gnomon一向都是以美金計算，美金起，其他錶款的標價自然也起。
那麼現在最好的購買方式，也就是向原廠買了。。。
這不是本地人不支持本地商家的問題，而是本地商家在標價上怎麼應對真實的外匯波動。

Got it from a friend at a good price.
It was bought locally. 5mil series. Shld be 1977.
Older than me sia the watch.
Below 9k. With original bracelet.
The insert is I buy extra and put it in.
Cost me about $700 for the faded mk3 insert.
Probably now can sell for 700usd
5513/5512 price are creeping up. Above 10k at least.
Plus dial, bracelet, case, insert and bezel all plays a part.
Must be careful of fake cause alot nowadays.

I am looking for 1675 next. But likely to hoot a modern Satki piece before going back into vintage.
Before all these, need to find a job first hahaha

Buying vintage requires a lot of research and best to bring a friend who knows to be the second pair of eyes.

Have fun while finding.

Thanks thanks. I think looks good because I used a dslr with bokeh effect. With abit of photoshop to change the mood.
But the sunshine pic is taken by the iPhone.

Tried it when first launched in Nov, lovely green dial but no feel for me

Also, not forgetting service history, and if one has a watchmaker with experience on vintage pieces that doesn't charge exorbitant prices for parts. Other possible inconvenience includes things like water resistance and lack of lume, among the many factors to note in pursuing vintages.

Any chance you are waiting for Basel 2017 to see what modern pieces you want to hoot? Still awaiting your AP hoot.
