We all know the PloProf watch.
When I bought mine, I was really lucky. I bought it from the original owner. He was neither a watch person nor an "abuser". The watch looks almost like new & came with it's original owners manual. It was fitted with an 1162 bracelet ( looks like a speedy MK II bracelet)
I had a Mesh for it & started to look for an Isofrane ( Rubber strap ).
Everyone knows that they were available in Dark Blue / Black ( See the above pic ).
But, I also have a catalogue showing it on a Yellow Isofrane
& there were rumours of a Red Isofrane also being available.
Over the years I have only ever seen 1 red & a few Dark Blue/Black Isofranes. They are rare !
A few weeks ago an eBayer offered the following items ( seller pics used... so if you want copies take them now )
The seller had 3 Blue straps. I expected the straps to fetch a "good" price & was prepared to go upto about $200.... WRONG !!!
The cheapest went for $560 & the most expensive for $1080 !!
Total price for 5 straps ?
$ 3840 yes ! USD
Most of them went to 1 buyer, but the yellow "escaped" to someone in Italy....
I think I need a beer now
