A blackout dial for the first time in a while.
This rare dial was produced in limited quantities, changing from the 1016 to this 14270 model.
The first one was a silver font with 3, 6, and 9 on a silver plate, then a silver font with 3, 6, and 9 luminous parts painted black, and finally a white font with 3, 6, and 9 painted black. (I don't sell the last white letter type though.)
This blackout dial is made up of a combination of small differences, but when you look at it as a whole it gives off a strangely different impression from the regular model, which is interesting; the price is also quite different from the regular model.
All accessories included with the product are included except for the green tag. The box even has a stamped sticker on it, so it's a set that gives you the feeling of it being exactly as it was at the time. It's interesting that the only thing missing is the warranty card. The warranty card was mailed later, so the envelope itself seems to have been lost.
No matter how you look at it, everything is original. Even the clasp cord. The stretch of the bracelet is minimal and it looks like it has been used very little. The lugs of the case are sturdy and long. This length is also a key point.
Since there are very few of them available, we recommend that you get one while you can.
