Then again...this is a dealer specializing in them, they search them out, buy them, then resell them.

It's kind of like saying that we think Ferraris are rare, then go to a dealership and say "oh...no they're not, lots of them here".

Yep! But in what condition? That’s the real question…. and what sets some apart from the rest.

Looks like it's the Rolex shop in the Royal Arcade off Bond Street in London, opposite Louis Vuitton.

Zenith Rainbow El Primero Cobalt blue. I have a tt band for it, but for me it works better on blue croc.

Oooh, I love that skeletonized Corum Bubble. I have a close friend who has owned several Corums including a couple of bubbles and I've really grown fond of their look. The magnification of the bubble must have a neat effect on the skeletonized movement.

Thanks. For me the Bubble skeleton is the ultimate Bubble. Because of the effect on the movement. Also because of this Corum worked very hard on the in-house built and fully PVD's 2892. they even managed to work their Corum key logo into the movement.Above the barrel.
They are getting hard to find.
