A Special Incoming and a Dealer Review

I love this pick up. Congratulations. I had heard good things about C&C.

On another note, I always thought about buying a 2005 model to and wear it and ultimately so I had my son's birth year in house to gift to him some day. I should start pursuing that while there might be some NOS around.

Over polished

Jk. Congratulations, Jacob. I felt the same way about crown and caliber (unjustified). I will definitely add them to my searches.

Nice. Great pick up.
Every once in a while they seem to have a good price, but as a whole, they're usually on the dealers high end.

Scratches don't bother me, but polishing does.

Good review. Appreciate it!

I was hoping to find a nice, but not perfect, unpolished full set. The forum guys seem to be asking $8,000 or $9,000 for a watch like that these days. I could never live with getting gouged so hard. This NOS model was much cheaper - a couple hundreds more than the last MSRP for this reference.

The last three decently priced LVs I've seen were NOS and offered by big dealers. Very strange.

Great pick up and great to hear good things about Crown & Caliber.

Looks great !! I agree with crown and calibre service as well. That's where I got my 73 Speedy mark 3 (in the Carlos auction) and the service I got after i won the auction was great.

Don't peel the stickers, I got the clap the last time that I did that

I want one so bad but refuse to pay a forum stealer $12,000 (or more) for NOS, or worse, $9k for an overpolished turd that they call "mint".

I have a feeling it'll never happen. Congrats on the pickup.

Awesome, great deal. I've also bought from C and C and couldn't agree more with you.
