I have owned this watch from new, I love it but with the rising values, I hardly ever wear it. How do I tell if it is a flat 4? What can I expect to sell it for. I am going to sell to the trade, as e bay always produces either scams, or awful part exes in my experience.

That makes sense, thank you. I know it was one of the early ones. I forgot how much I liked it! The bracelet certainly feels different to the modern Daytona and GMT.

So far unseen, I have been offered 8K, however I forgot how much i liked it. It was the first watch I bought and started a collection. I inherited my Dads Air King and bought this to save my Dad's. Then as always it gets out of hand.

These are beautiful, I remember the first time I saw it.

You are so right, I loved this watch and then it started getting unwanted attention. I have a Zenith Striking 10th that I wear and no-one has ever said a word. Same with the BLNR's and Daytona's.

It was not that long ago that they were £2700 now you can wear £15,000 worth of watch and its a steel watch.

Thank you so much, that is geek heaven. The different green colours was really interesting.I always thought mine was a bit different, B3 according to this.

I think upon reflection if I do decide to do some selling this may be the last to go.

I am never sure if we don't enjoy the research more than the actual items.
