Grade 5 Titanium Pilot case with Seamaster homage dial and hands AliExpress special.
It can be regulated to that in a single position and wind level on your time grapher at home. The wind level variance and positional variances of the movement are too great to actually get that kind of performance in different use cases.

That might have been a relevant consideration in 1950. People send and receive wires via mobile phones from the remote corners of the jungle these days.

People without expertise to authenticate won’t touch them in exchange for cash.
