Another Rare Bird!
I found another rare piece! It’s an 8298, but in gold (plated)!
I have seen 8298’s in stainless before (I have one) but never in gold.
This one came with the box, manuals and spare link with a warranty card dated to 1997!
I’m on a streak with these rare Commander variants!

I have been collecting watches for over 30 years. I like expensive watches, inexpensive watches, vintage watches, homage watches and everything in between!

I agree! It has an almost 3D quality to it.
Nice pickup! Where’d you find?
The chapter ring very interesting too! Thanks for sharing 🤝

It was an eBay purchase. Fortunately it was one that worked out.
