GuB Glashutte Cal. 69.1 Deco Dial - $200
GuB Glashutte Spezimatic Cal.75 - $230
GuB Glashutte Spezimatic Bison Cal.75 - $160
For all three: $540 ($40 discount)
I am offering these together because I have been collecting GuB Glashutte watches with the intention of finding the perfect Deco Dial version, and these accumulated in my collection to compliment each other. If you look these up on eBay you can see that my prices are very reasonable, and I’ll eat the fees for domestic USA purchases. Originally I bought the black-dial Spezimatic because it came so close to my ideal, but once I had it, I became concerned about difficulties in finding replacement parts if it developed problems: so I bought the Bison with an identical movement that runs almost perfectly, intending to keep it as a donor. Then last year the cal 69.1 popped up and I had to get it because it came even closer to my ideal… but in catching my prize I think my obsession has faded. As I am trying to downsize my collection, these are simply not getting the wrist time they deserve.

I’m trying to keep an oversized collection in check. I try to give full disclosure about known conditions. I don't make profit on my sales, so I prefer to ship only in north America, but I'm flexible if you are. Selling as-is. I promise I am describing full known condition (veering towards negatives for this reason, knowing and sharing our slightly obsessive WIS nature.) Price includes Paypal fees and shipping USA/Canada first class un-insured. (If you want special or overseas shipping we can discuss extra costs.) I have purchased and sold many watches as “skywatch” on WUS, with good feedback. Thanks! - Robert
