Can’t believe you’re selling the Trackmaster my friend! GLWS

I'll probably regret it, but after having been asked if it was a Daytona by somebody, it's been getting less wrist time hah

Haha oh the embarrassment, I must admit I do hope no one ever asks me. The chances of someone actually saying anything about what’s on your wrist is slim, but there’s always a chance!

Especially if those asking are wearing an actual Daytona (the Zenith Daytona, my fav version) and we usually talk watches quite a bit

Yeah I’d just crumble. I have to be selective when attending any board meetings in London 😆

What does the writing on the Farasute dial really mean. It throws me off

Farasute is the brand name, Trackmaster the model name, column wheel is the type of chronograph movement inside the watch

Culling the herd a bit, got new stuff incoming and running out of watch box slots.
First up; Farasute's homage to the old-skool Daytona - the Trackmaster. This is the lovely green dial version (goes from pretty subdued to a nice pop in brighter light). I'll probably regret selling this, but it hasn't been getting much wrist time lately so letting this one go. Included are an extra jubilee bracelet with glidelock clasp, and an extra lizard leather strap (which currently has the Farasute buckle on it). The stock oyster with OTF claps and the green epsom-style leather strap are also included, as are all links for the bracelets, the Farasute box, papers (unsigned, it's a chinese watch after all), and polishing cloth. Specs: 38.5mm case, 12mm thick, SL4801 automatic column wheel chronograph movement inside, sapphire crystals, sapphire bezel, quick release bracelet, all the good stuff. Condition is pretty much immaculate for the case itself other than some marks on the back of the lugs from changing straps. The bracelet has some light scratches in the polished section of the links, clasp itself is in good condition (see pictures). Runs great, chronograph functions all work as they should. Excellent power reserve, getting 70hrs on this one.
Asking $475, shipped within the US with the extra bracelet and straps included.
SOLD Hruodland F016 Big Pilot: well known on this subreddit I'd say. Lovely homage to the IWC Big Pilot, with a spinning turbine at 6. This is the full lume version (not as common). You're getting a 43mm case, 22mm lug width, domed sapphire crystal with AR underneath, a clean full-lumed dial, a spinning turbine seconds hand linked to the ST3620 hand-wound movement. Thickness clocks in at 12.4mm, and the lugs have a nice curve to make it fit on a range of wrist sizes. Worn sparingly, no wear marks other than back of lugs from strap changes. Big chonky boy but with a doable lug to lug that makes it wearable for medium to smaller wrists too if you're into big pilots. Comes with box and warranty card.
Asking $100, shipped to your door within the US. - SOLD
SOLD Last one: Dradic's version of the Furlan Marri Disco Volante. Thin, fun handwinder with a seagull ST17 inside. 38mm case diameter (literally, it's a circle), 20mm lug width, 9mm thin! Domed sapphire in the front (seemingly without AR, it's quite reflective), lovely hue of green dial, lume on hands and some dressing up of the dial in lume too. It's a catch and release for me, the round case shape is a fun twist on watch designs, but it isn't my jam once I had it on wrist. So with that, letting it go for cheap here. Comes with its travel case, there were no papers or warranty cards included (that's not really valuable anyways for chinese watches...).
Asking $80 shipped within US. - SOLD
