Up Sale my FC Slimline Moonphase Manufacture watch. I purchased it from Bobby about two months ago. The watch came as a pre-owned piece according to Bobby but I did not see any sign of wear. In other words, it is a new watch technically. Yet, I would say 99.8% of new if you insist it is a pre-owned piece. You might be lucky if you can find one or two hairlines and this is true about the condition of the watch. It also sits in the box unfortunately without getting any wrist time like my other pieces so I decided to find a better home for it.
The brand was established since 1988 and it is fairly a new Swiss brand. On the other hand, young does not necessarily mean less capability and yet the brand is quite great of what they are doing somehow in fact. This piece is equipped by their in-house movement and the nearest similar piece would likely cost you about $6000 euros but they have managed to sell it for $3895 CAD MSRP. The dial is just so beautiful to look at and I even can put it to battle with Piaget Altiplano.
If you are concerned it is not like Rolex and Omega which can hold their value strongly, you may not need to bother but no other watches can do the same job as Rolex and Omega. If you are a true collector and appreciate the beautiful dial and design, you will never regret about FC. As matter of the fact, this piece is one of their best sellers and still in production since 2015.
MSRP $3895, Bobby’s price was $1975 and my price $1695 shipped for a literally new/unworn watch.
