Hello, looking for this gem to complete the set of the three amigos. I seek silver, "made in japan" version specifically.
As for the price, let's start with 650 GBP. Happy to negotiate.

All the best

Good luck Barney - it took me a long time to find mine, keep an eye on WEX photo, they've had several limiteds recently

Saw this at £510.00 on Cex website. It does not indicate the color though.

Thank you Lenny.
I had no big trouble finding sliver FA 43mm and 77mm MIJ at reasonable price. The 31mm though seems as rare as hen's teeth from the looks of it (unless I buy it from someone in Japan, which would add significant amount to the price).
Unfortunately, WEX does not ship to my country. Oh well.

Gajan - I checked it out and considered contacting them for details, but it seems they won't ship outside UK just like WEX. Thank you for the tip though.

Barney, if you know anyone in the UK could you not just get it posted to them, and then let them post it to you ?
I know what i like, If not always why.

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone

Last bump I guess. £750 for a mint one with a red pouch.

Hello Barney, I have a red pouch one which I'm going to sell. Mint with box and document of purchase from 2002.
Are you interested?

From Italy.
