Beater or Project? Help with a 105.012-65
So I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised by what I arrived. It was billed at as a Speedy Reduced, and had awful pictures, but I figured it was worth a roll once I learned it was a 105.012-65 with a c.321. Plus, the added bonus, it came with a mint 1499/842 bracelet that once I resell, should get my cost basis very low.Yes, it has issues, some will be easy to correct, and some will take time, but overall, it has a pleasing look, and runs like a champ and the movement is buttery smooth.First things first, the movement is a 24,00x,xxx serial cal.321 that is appropriate for the 105.012-65 case, so I don't think it is a franken.

My collection of 4 - but...
Hi All, TRF has become my daily newspaper, and I thank you all for the passion and insights shared. Owned 20+ pieces in the last 3 years, consolidated down to PP and as follows: 5205 / 5726 / 5712 / 5167 I am not loving the Aquanaut, I do have an opportunity to trade that plus the 5712 and cash for a blue 5960, that would leave the collection down to 3. I am not looking to add many more, but to settle on a well balanced 3 or 4 within the PP stable. So I open this up to all of you for some pearls of wisdom!Warmest regards and wishes,
