Turn o graph love



Spotted this at a local grey dealer and absolutely loved it. Anything to look out for before considering it? It's a 2004 serial, no papers. Any idea what it's worth?
Shouldn't it say some where on the dial turn-o-graph?

IIRC, an easy way to tell is the TOG has an all red TURN-O-GRAPH designation above the Superlative Chronometer line + an all red date wheel.

Mine is a "Y" sold in 2004

That's cool with the blue dial on the jubilee, I'd pick it up for the right price. A lot depends on the condition of the jubilee and the watch is due for service without any proof of one recently...

I paid $3,750 for this with all the docs, manuals, boxes, etc and it's 95% easily. Price from that.

BTW, it technically called a Thunderbird, or so I am told...

Would I be able to replace the bezel with a stainless steel regular bezel later?

I wouldn't! The bezel is what makes it so cool! Here's mine:
