Nice watch, big history - and big price. You have to know that two wheels of the Aquastar Regate Felsa 4000N were especially made for Aquastar by Felsa and mostly they got broken, so you have to be sure, that the watch is working and the movement is in best condition.
Watch looks good to me, but got unusual main hands.

Thanks to Mark, he found it on ebay this morning... !
Have a good day,
Henrik
