Re: And the original thread
In Response To: Re: And the original thread ()

Jean-Pierre,
Be advised that the photo of the caseback of the watch you link to on ebay, shows that this is marked 750.501.

Therefore, it is either, 1) Used to be a black PVD model & has had the finish removed, or, 2) It is a 750-501-3 but with an incorrect caseback.
Not that it should put anyone off buying it, for that reason alone.

: Thanks Mark. I haven't realized that the model could come without
: "day" either. Jean-Pierre
