Yep, price is high, but keep reading and see why...
I hate to do this, but I've got Marinemaster fever real bad, so off she goes.
I'd like to sell my blue Samurai, purchased here in May from Chuck (ttsugar). (
That posting is here)
As you can see from that, it's the
first one anywhere with a sapphire crystal!
Sorry, had to make that clear. Chuck neatly addressed the one weakness of the Samurai, and it's been a great watch.
I had it professionally adjusted after three months by Asim Gunalpt here in San Diego, and it runs within 15s/day.
I'm including the original Ti bracelet, sized, with all links and parts, as well as a Z22 straight-vent strap. As a bonus, I'm also including a buffalo tan leather strap, with contrasting stitching and quick-release springbars that I bought from
F & E buckles. (Not affiliated, just a happy customer). This one, as pictured, is really comfortable and perfectly sets off the blue of the dial.
I've also got the box, papers, hang tag, etc as pictured. I would assume that when Chuck replaced the crystal, he voided the warranty but I'm happy to guarantee against DOA, especially since Asim went over it.
Condition: I'd rate this as 80-85% on the TZ scale. I managed to put the usual desk-diver scuffs on the bracelet, and the bezel has some dings on the inner portion. Despite that, the sapphire crystal is flawless. Crown has all threads, watch looks great overall.
Not interested in trades, unless you want to downgrade your MM for this plus cash.
I put an album of high-res pictures up at
this page, please feel free to email me if you have questions. I have SCTF refs and am also phubbard on ebay with lots of history there.
