Unique Doxa Army for sale; $9000.


I have owned this Doxa Army for around 12-13 years and starting to sell off some of my collection. I found this bit of info on the web but not much info is available on this unique watch and last I heard only 5 or 6 are even still in existence. "Shock-protected, self-winding calendar movement (non quick set) in a water resistant black oxidised case (DLC which is mostly gone except on the back of the case, showing a bright Stainless steel case, with screw back, water resistant screw crown (not original but screws in), recessed into the case to protect it from shocks. Other features are a time lapse bezel with luminous numerals, dial for day or night use, sweep second hand with arrow tip for telling time to the second at night, and mineral crystal, which is said to be practically scratch-proof and unbreakable, and allows legibility without optical distortion. Each Doxa Army was supplied in a practical zipper bag made of camouflage cloth" (I don't have the bag and isn't included with the sale).

Red is a good dude, but that’s a niche sale. One on Chrono24 as well.

So, if I ever get up there for Coast Guard again, I should leave that one at home?

Only one of heard of was “white shark”, which was a small run of Sharkhunter’s with white hands instead of white/orange.
