I just made a purchased today that I'm pretty excited about.
Its a RXW PLASMIR MILGRAPH CHRONOGRAPH an Homage to Panerai that isn't a direct rip off.
They are a little pricey between 1400-1900 fair market, but they're not being made anymore and are very hard to get a hold of new.
RXW Marina watches are sought after and command a premium. When they were first released they were less than a 1000 but now a complete package can cost you twice that.
I actually saved 800 off market and it's coming direct from the Manufacture in Japan so I'm very happy.
There are 2 versions of the watch, a 2 reg chrono and a 3 reg chrono. The 2 reg is the hand wound 20 jewel cal VS 1962 chronograph movement that IMO is beautiful it also beats at 21,600 rather than the standard 28,800 and the 3 reg is a Valjoux 7750 a true workhorse. I have pics of both but I'm receiving the 2 counter Wednesday.
It's a pretty complete package. It comes with 2 Connolly leather straps brown and black, a Stainless Steal bracelet, 2 screw in case backs one stainless one sapphire crystal.
There are a few on eBay new and used with different packages and parts.
These aren't my pics but IMO they do the watch justice. I'm posting a lot to try and get as much detail as possible... Enjoy!
