Thought some of you might be interested in this - there aren't too many around. No movement photos, so don'tt know how right this is inside, but it's a real model.

I'm not sure, but I though the caseback should have been marked 8806-M, which was the model number for this.

Never seen it before. There's no M in the ref no. Are you sure it isn't PVD-ed after?

Well, I can't swear on this one, but the hands are right and the model is definitely correct - on www.navitimer.net it's on Page 7 of the collectors section.

Didn't noticed it on Lesmala til now.
On this one PVD looks too good for the watch that old, but on the other side it may have been kept in a safe for years. Interesting Navi, thanks for bringing it up.

That's probably been in the sales corner on Timezone for at least 2 months now. I think there may actually 2 of them on there, this is the better looking of the 2.
