Bought this one several years ago. Wanted something dressy with a little gold in it and it's served me well over the years. Now I've decided I want to upgrade to a sport model and sadly I can't afford to keep this one and buy another.

Two Tone Gold / Stainless Steel Datejust w/ Gold bezel, silver stick dial and 1570 movement. Runs well within COSC specs which are within minus 4 to plus 6 seconds a day, recently had it cleaned and serviced.

Ok, here is everything that is wrong about it.

1. The dial has a small scratch on it at about 10 o'clock. It's visible in the pictures.

2. The bracelet has some stretch but nothing dramatic. I took pictures with it on a rolled towel so you can see how it would wear on your wrist with some tension. I originally intended to replace it with an aftermarket Gold/SS bracelet and just swap the original clasp to the new bracelet but I decided it really wasn't a problem and it hasn't bothered me in the 7 years or so that I've owned it.

3. The acrylic crystal has some small scratches, I pretty much have to get a new one every couple of years. Thankfully they are cheap.

And that's pretty much it. I've loved owning it and wish I could afford to keep it and buy another but just not that cash flush right now.

Asking $2,050.00 shipped insured. This model is typically sells for about $2,500 and the examples I've seen aren't in as good condition as this one.
