FS: MkII Key West GMT LE
I have a MkII Key West GMT LE for sale. It is a "Plank Owner" full set in DEAD MINT condition.
Case side protection stickers still in place.
Powered by an ETA 2893-2 GMT movement.
The Key West GMT is the gilt white dial with BGW9 (blue emission) lume and 24-hour Pepsi (red/blue) insert and all the extras (spare 24-hour Pepsi insert). Roulette date wheel (red for even numbers, black for odd numbers).
Only issue is a manufacturing defect on the last link in the bracelet. To "remedy" this, I bought a spare OEM bracelet to go with this watch that I'm including in the sale, too.
I am selling my Key West GMT for $2,500 all-in shipped in the USA. Outside the USA, shipping will be charged at cost.
Paypal Ok.
I waited a total of 4 years for this watch; that's from initial deposit to final delivery. You don't have to wait that long. You can own it NOW.
No trades please. All trade offers will be politely ignored.

SOLD: MkII Nassau
SOLD: MkII Nassau No-Date, BGW9 Super Luminova with blue emission lume
This is one of the first 25 Nassau models ever built. The difference from the subsequent Nassau models is that these first 25 are fitted with the same 8 mm BIG CROWN as the Kingston LE. All later Nassau models have a smaller 7 mm crown.
This one also has the Red Triangle insert which has been out of stock for a while now.
Bracelet clasp has no issues closing when sized on the last link which it is now (see picture).
I am the original owner. This watch comes with all bracelet links, tools, papers, box, plastic stickers, etc. Full set (see picture).
It has NEVER been taken off the bracelet after Bill Yao assembled it and shipped it to me; thus, the underside of the lugs are pristine. This is a pet peeve of mine when they are all chewed up by careless strap changes.
See the pictures for the condition of the watch.
(I am a Kingston Plank owner so this watch is kind of "doubly" redundant. I'd rather another MWR member wear and enjoy it.)
Price: SOLD
NO TRADES. All trade offers will be politely ignored.

Omega Seamaster 300 SPECTRE Limited Edition
The best modern Seamaster from Omega in years. And ironically, it's tied-in to a fictional character - James Bond, 007.
The Omega Seamaster 300 SPECTRE Limited Edition (this is one of a whopping 7,007 pieces, not so limited as it turns out).
Take the current Seamaster 300, already a great watch, and change the following parts:
- Lollipop seconds hand
- 0 - 11 Liquidmetal® bezel insert for tracking a second timezone
- bidirectional bezel
- 3, 6, 9, Ω dial (12 marker replaced by Omega "Ohm" logo) and larger OMEGA script below
- "SPECTRE" and "xxxx/7007" discretely on caseback
- Brushed bracelet with "007" on clasp
- Watch fitted with "Bond-style" NATO strap
More pictures to come.

Zeno-Watch Basel Limited Edition Diver EZ 0-1
For Sale: Zeno-Watch Basel Diver Limited Edition of 150 units. Swiss made and powered by a vintage AS 2063 movement. Nice to see this Fifty Fathoms homage use a similar movement to the original and not the usual and ubiquitous ETA 2824-2.
The dial is similar to the Mil-Spec 1 or No Radiations Fifty Fathoms' dials albeit without either the moisture disc or No Rad symbol above the 6 o'clock. The hokey part of the dial is the Zeno airplane logo. A dive watch or a diver style watch should not have pictures of an airplane anywhere on it. The two just don't match.
While the hour markers glow quite acceptably when charged by a light source, the hands barely glow. Unfortunately, the numbers and markers on the acrylic (or is it mineral glass?) bezel insert do not glow in the dark.
Some specs: Stainless steel, 42 mm Ø, 15 mm thick, 22 mm lug width, screw down crown and case back, unidirectional rotating bezel, mineral crystal, A. Schild cal. 2063 movement (non-hacking), 100 m water resistance., Luminova luminescence.
It comes on an OEM leather strap with a signed stainless steel tang buckle.
Price: $800 shipped in the USA. Paypal Ok.
NO TRADES. All trade offers will be politely ignored.
