Hello, I want to buy a new U51 and vary between this two watches.

What do you think about this one:

http://puretime01.com/u51-ss-black-d...trap-a23j.html

168$ What kind of movement is it? Automatic? For 168$??
Unfortunately there is no label LIMITED EDITION. Can´t see it.



and this one:

http://www.ts-trade.com/16357-ub1635...7810048df.html


148$ with Quartz movement but with Label LIMITED EDITION


Please post your opinions. Need your help here, please...

For me it is difficult to compare based on this pictures.

Which one should I buy?

Thanks in advance.

[MENTION=125341]21spike0[/MENTION]: Indeed, this one looks better and it´s one with a real automatic movement. But a bit more expensive...but I think it makes sense to pay more for a good automatic one.

Most important thing is to find a good TD, then the right watch.

flight2016 both look OK and the same type I have picked. However I am looking at this version below from a TD on this site

http://v.yupoo.com/photos/mrwatch/albums/31099945/

Does anyone know which specific U-Boat model this is based on?

As far as I know (which is nearly worthless as a guide) the Green Line(?) had several green bits on the dial, but no side view window.

This does not have the green bits, but it does have the side view window.

Am I missing something?

Green hands - no side window, white hands option of side window.

Not sure of official line however. I have asked a TD if he can source green hands with side window as a custom job.

I'm not so worried about knowing the official xxxx model code as I am in confirming it as a rep of an actual model U-Boat.

Did you get answer?

Thank you!

Hey guys, did any of you buy one? I got a one a while back and love it, mine is the Seiko VK Quartz version which is exactly the same build as the 7750 automatic version, which is a movement I always avoid anyway

Its a great lump of watch for the money
