I see one listed a while back and its not marked as sold, may be you can check if the price is ok for you. Everything on this checks out except the seconds hand which is a bit shorter than the usual pilots

I wonder why the watch has not been marked as sold yet?!!

The price of course! But we don't know who wants it at what price, depends on the seekers desperation I guess.

Ah yes, it could possibly be the price!

Hmt have listed few new automatics but the prices have now started touching in range of seiko5s and vostok watches. It seems greed has atlast taken hold of this iconic common mens watch......

It's a fair point. The original ethos seems long-forgotten by those running what is left.
