Incoming Aqua 5065!
Not the most popular, but I am really really pleased with this reference.
I have come very close to buying it a few times this year, but finally took the plunge yesterday. Condition looked excellent, the patina was very striking, I simply could not resist. I did not like the bracelet through the pictures I always saw, however in the flesh I must say it is growing on me. Came with a rubber strap as well, however I will probably wear it on the bracelet for a while longer before changing it up. Hope you guys like it! Thanks for looking, and have a nice weekend.

Prices for these are only going one way - it seems like it is virtually impossible to find them for sale

Thanks so much for the love gents!

The lume fades relatively quick once shined with a UV. I am not sure what the cutoff is, have been trying to look more into it. Recently asked another owner, and his was luminova, from 2000s. |
