Perfect example. I prefer cream plots on the flakes. I really like how the insert is a nice blue/grey color. Looks great.

Hahaha, it's too early on the west coast to be that in tune... Something like this would work in about 4 hours

Here is my most recent one, sorry for the bad pic

At auction in the last year as others have said complete blues tend to settle in around 4250 or black 3250. The market is such a sellers market though people can ask whatever they want and hope a passionate buyer comes along. Pieces over 4750 tend to sit for a while and IMHO anything over 5k is too much. For head only subtract 600 or so but in reality it seams people are so snow crazy that pieces with and without bracelets are selling within 200-300 of each other. It took me about two years of stalking ebay to find this one and that included owning a less than stellar example for a while to quench the thirst. Happy hunting!

They are very cool, the roulette makes it...

BTW, that blue snowflake analog shift is selling was mine and just sold it to them last month. Its a true beauty and I do miss it a lot. The dial was near perfect, had great patina and no chips on the dial. Unfortunately had to sell it to obtain a 1016 for my sig. other. PM me if you want to know any history on it.

6K is a grand too much, possibly more.

[Jayrock26]

More photos , everything is mint

[vcnyls]

Hey Jayrock, is that one of the Hodinkee leather camo straps? I'm thinking about one of those for my GMT. Looks great on yours!

[Jayrock26]

Its not quite mine yet! , but yes seller described the strap as the hodinkee camo suede strap!

Very nice looking

[John in MA]

It's nice but way overpriced. However if it sings to you then by all means. I bought mine almost 3 years ago for $4200 when they were not worth that much and never looked back.

[Davvan]

If you gonna spend 6k on a Snowflake.....head only...it better be a 94010......now that is a watch you dont see often in the open market....

[Jayrock26]

Yeah looking a little steep dont know if i can make it that far for a snowflake

Thanks guys!

6k I think original 9315 band is a must and maybe an original box or so. Here's mine I got this Januaryuploadfromtaptalk1409191943361.jpguploadfromtaptalk1409191962703.jpg

[eco8gator]

$6k is too much.

$4500 Max for a piece that is in good shape with original dial and hands.

[Dan Pierce]

Still think the bezel has too much shine and not enough oxidation to be original.

I have seen some with plenty of shine going back past then, especially on nicer examples. However, I agree with you that this seems to be a service insert as the majority SEEM (emphasis to ambiguate ;) ) to be MKIII inserts

I agree with Dan. The insert looks to be a service replacement. Not a deal breaker at all because it's a very nice insert but at that price it should be all original.

[Vincent65]

at that price it needs to be MN!

[oakalley]

I just saw this post, I have to agree this one is way too expensive. I just sold one last week with a service insert, in really nice condition with a 93150 bracelet and Tudor fliplock ( I know it's not correct, but I didn't know at the time!!) I sold mine for 3700.00 USD which I realize now was too cheap, but I was funding a 94300 and needed the cash.

price is not the issue, the issue is that it looks too clean..a 35+ yo watch has to look the part.. like this :)

While I appreciate the character that one possesses, not all 35+ yr-old watches have to look like that. There's no such thing as 'too clean' IMO - unless you know for certain that something is awry, then it is possible to look that good.

Here are a few examples of original dials which are considerably old and very clean:

1966
1970
1976

This one that recently sold is about as close to 6 as you can get

As I mentioned in my previous post, I was the prior owner of the watch Analog Shift is selling and I assure you that the dial, case and hands are clean and original. Unfortunately I had to let this watch go for personal reasons and I do regret selling it. It also came with a later Tudor 9315 bracelet.
