Expeditions Polaires Francaises – Missions Paul-Emile Victor


This is a catch and release, paid $2220 for it 2 weeks ago. A little small for me (39.5mm), so funds will go toward something a little larger.


Movement Calibre L619 (ETA 2892/A2) and watch keeps excellent time.

It's in fabulous condition, barely a mark/swirl on it and the Sapphire crystal is unblemished. Number 139 of 2000 IIRC, released back around 2010. The hands have a beautiful blue tinge when they catch the light.


Now sporting a new Bas & Lokes 19mm Olive Green Nato strap, worth US $95.00.


Will ship registered, insured and express at my cost within Australia.


Included are 2 other leather straps. No box or paperwork included other than the valuation.


There is one for sale on watchuseek at the moment for US $1850


Pick up available in Brisbane

Tempting... Has this been serviced?

 

Hi, sorry for late reply. I don't know whether it has been serviced or not. AFAIK I am the second owner after it was traded in, in Melbourne.
