For you viewing pleasure & consideration, I give you this 6309-7049 I managed to scoop up last night. It looks great to me, except for the hands, I can't tell if they are AM/replaced hands. However, for the price I couldn't resist. Which is a problem. I am determined to get a 62Mas yet I need to save up for this purchase. Yet every time I get to saving up, I end up popping for something like this! No more. I am going to impose a hiatus from eBay on myself, for as long as I can, and only buy BIN offerings of 6139 and 6309/6306/6105 models. Gee, that shouldn't too tough of a hiatus, huh?? Anyway! On with the purchase, please let me know what you think about the hands vs. the rest of the watch and when I get it, I'll try to post some up close pictures. Thanks for looking & your advice!

Great score Dasher, the hands appear legit to me judging by the hole starting to show in the lume . . . dirt cheap price mate, bravo !!!!

If I had to guess, I'd say the hands are AM...still a nice buy though.

Gotta beg to differ Timmy, went back and had a good long perve, both hands are exhibiting a thinning of the lume in the middle and there is the hole on the minute hand as well . . . I could be wrong however, that's just my reading of it.

They looked too white to already have a hole in the lume. But yes, if that is indeed is a hole, then I agree.

Up close pictures and the ever-dependable lume test should help shed some light (pun intended) on this question. Thanks gents!
