You can grab a MK3 Trident if you didn't get the chance during the sale. It also seems to include the C60 Sapphire, which I don't remember seeing on sale. Would bring it to $760.75 from $895.

The C60 Sapphire is on preorder, and those are excluded from the sale.Image

List price is $2,025
Condition is - Used - Very Good / Missing manual. Item is in original packaging, but packaging has damage.

This one was hard to dodge, but I already have 2 of these.

15% COUPON CODE. k2qpw8J for someone to use
3% TOPCASH link though

~$140 delivered after tax
I'd love to hear more about this watch from anyone that receives theirs soon. I'm on the fence (too many watches already, need to focus on what I really want, ... ;) ). I have tried hunting around on the intertubes for reviews and real-life photos/videos, but there's very little out there.
I searched for some real life pics and it better shows the minute hand... To me, seems a tad too long as it goes past the minutes track.

I wish all watches has the second hand extending to the seconds track. Love these watches but my collection is maxed out, great movement, cool case and dial.

Still way too big at 44mm.

Alpina Startimer Pilot Automatic Grey 44mm Watch, model # AL-525NN4TS6B
Sale price is $324.99
List price is $1,295
Condition is - “This is a MANUFACTURER'S REFURBISHED, fully functional Alpina watch. It comes complete with tags, paperwork and a valid 2-year warranty, from our own company, for U.S. buyers. It comes with the box pictured in the listing, but with a manufacturer's refurbished sticker on the box”

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Alpina-Mens-St ... 4155468595

It has been slightly lower before. I bought the same model a few months ago, from the same seller for $295. Also, while they say "manufacturer refurbished", mine certainly looked brand new, but of course ymmv. For that price and with a Sellita SW200 inside, who cares 😀

Good catch. I saw it when I clicked on the link in my email so I figured it applied. Just tested it and can confirm it does not.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

I don’t hate that Alpina, I don't love it, but I don’t hate it.

The Avalanche Extreme Regulator with diamond accents.

Not the same but the same.

Got a seller on eBay to send me an offer for $250 on the lum-tec G7. Used the 5% ebay bucks and TopCash 1% to keep it around $251 after tax. Clearly I have a thing for orange.

Well, crap. I got it back out to show my wife when she got home so she could share my disgust.......and it looks a lot better now. She says it most certainly is not rose gold, and thinks it is a great looking watch. The gold definately looks darker to me than normal yellow gold, but if she says it isn't rose then I'm sure it isn't. Since she has good taste and I don't, I'll take her word for it and keep the watch.
pics or it didnt happen
Here's a pic of mine (arrived today). It's ok. Not a keeper.

Glad I held back from ordering, as that is not a flattering photo of this model KonTiki. Buy the watch and not the deal as some say....

I bought one a couple of months ago on a sale. Both the seconds and minute hands extend to the edge of the dial so I think the length of the hands are just fine because they balance each other. It is a nice watch if one is in the market for a Zodiac/Turtle type of case. I will admit I haven't worn it yet but that has much more to do with I never leave my house anymore due to work-from-home and covid restrictions.
Make time to take time.
