I know this is a very long shot, but I hope somebody can help.

A (long) while ago, somebody posted on here asking where/whether to sell their watch because their wife said they couldn't get a new car if they didn't. I remember having not heard of the model, so I Googled it, and it was one of the nicest watches I'd ever seen and wanted to add it to my list of things to buy.

I can't for the life of me remember what it was now! I thought it was a Panerai or a Piaget, and maybe had a blue face and yellow gold case. The only thing I remember is that is was on sale for £18k on a website. It was called something like "Dual Calendar II" I think!

Any ideas?

Thanks

Can you remember what the original thread was called?

Nope and nope.

I don't know what the original thread was called otherwise I would have just searched for it! smile

I think it had a moon on the face as well thinking about it, but I'm unsure. Also pretty sure it was a round face.

I know this sounds a bit silly, but can you do a quick drawing of what you thought it looked like on MS Paint? It might give us a better idea of what it could be ... Otherwise it's somewhat of a minefield of potential possibilities! smile

Give Roger Smith a call. I hear he's looking for apprentices.

hehe that's pretty much it, just the face was a bit darker.

I've got the feeling it might have have been this:



But not convinced that it is how I remembered. Any other watches that look similar to this?
