    but keep in mind that the bracelet isnt as long as i would like it to be. some shop price may have full length bracelet but prices will be adjusted accordingly.

          that is a concealed clasp bracelet. this started in 2001-2002 and has solid links thus reducing stretch.


          that is the older clasp. this was stopped production around 2001 i believe. this i should make you aware is cheaper however it is hard to find one with minimal stretch, since the links are hollow

            Thks for the explanation...
            The one i gotten for my wife is the old clasp...

            Anyway, I was offered a 15000 for ard $1.8k, is this price worth?
            Was thinking of using this for everyday usage...

              compare with comparable models and see. if you like can buy, UNLESS you plan on buying and selling in short term. then that is different case altogether.

                          yes very sad. this watch pass from my uncle to my father and to me. and many thing happen to this watch, a very colorful history. but my dad called the shot to sell, and once fixed, i will be sad to see it go.

                          i saw one of my lecturers with the same watch only in black dial and he also sighted my 16233 and noticed the nice glow it had. i commented on his watch too.
