In a dilemma...I REALLY want a vintage...

So I can basically start and get a good deal of a bronze 6154 underway (and worry about resale value)

or

I can buy an ETA DSSD and a pam 390 (I have the ass strap)

What would you do?

Bronze? Commmomannn..... Although cool, not a vintage piece.

Silix special 6154. $220 (silix case with movement, hands, the whole works.)
Athaya case back and 8mm crown. $70
Southy, NW, rsea, ect dial $100

Maybe some case reshaping yourself. But no REAL work. Movement ect.

You've got yourself a real tits watch for less than $400

Just sayin' ;)

One of the coolest watches out there no doubt. Up there with the horn lug Pam. But sadly not a vintage watch in my mind. homage at best. The 6154 Redmill has for sale right now might be right up your alley.

Go vintage.

If it don't sell at the price you want just part it out.


Always wanted a vintage build with a southy dial but my wrists are too small. :(
