Hello, im almost buying this Rado and i wanted to know if its a good deal...


here's the link to the "brazillian ebay" page

it looks original to me... i guess theres maybe a dial restoration but i liked the cremy color of the dial...

Here's one that just sold:

I think that answers your question.

That surely helps, but i've been looking for the same model i'm about to buy but i cant seem to find a purple horse with day/date feature.... also the day of the week is in Phlippine, and i know absolutely nothing about it.. hahaha I'll look at the watch and GUESS its... Monday?:-d

My experience is that cream color dials are often white. As the lubricants evaporate the distillates are sometime deposited on the dial resulting in a thin oily layer.

Well, i bought it!! Should be getting to my wrist in a week or so...

I've made a research and figured out that it is an ETA 2836 running inside it.. http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&0&2uswk&ETA_2836

is this ETA caliber good? thanks!
