Luminox field chronograph in a jewelry store today. Lightly used and was a trade-in. A little bigger style than I like, but the price seems right - they're asking $400? Oiled,up,and shined up by the watch guys at their main store. Has original box and paperwork. Any inputs on this watch would be appreciated. I'm not a big collector.

$400 sounds on the high side for that watch, but I could be totally off. Just shooting from the hip.

Retail new is in the range of $650. What is the range to expect for a "gently" used watch (ie 50%, 25%, ???)? Bonus is it was checked out by the jewelry store.

Any comments on Luminox in general would be appreciated.

In person from a local jeweler who was an authorized dealer. He was willing to negotiate and I got it at an awesome price.

Good for you! That is one of the nicer looking Ball's I have seen in a while. Was it someone else on this forum who also got a nice looking one? Remember seeing someone with a cool one not too long ago.

Nice Ball!

Moses, you were probably thinking of the Ball Mad Cow white dial that I posted on here. I sold it to partially fund the Rolex Sub purchase.

What is the general consensus on Raymond Weil Maestro automatics? I like the white dial with blue hour minute and second hands. The metal bracelet is real nice too. Any opinions?

Just ordered this, but I will put the brass bezel on it and a leather strap:


Thinking about the TI Bangla as well:
