I confess I'd never heard of the Lupin III, but it's certainly a striking look! That very bold half-black, half-white dial might limit resale. The A3817 looks like a replica of the first EP and is probably a safer bet if you need to move it on.

FWIW, I have a Ref. 03.2150.400/69.C713, the so-called El Primero Original 1969, which I bought new in 2016, and just this week I finally tracked down a black dial Ref. 01.0500.400 after a five-year search for the right one. Most of these have the silver dial...

They are great watches, and make a nice alternative to the Daytona at a fraction of the price.
