Panerai 1950 Mike Horn Special Edition

With considerable regret, I've decided to part with my amazing 307 depth gauge just to make some room for incoming pieces. This watch has gotten more compliments than any other watch I've owned, but it is a bit too casual for my line of work, so it doesn't get the wrist time it deserves.

Purchased from an AD in May-2010 and worn outside fewer than 10 times, this one is as close to new as you can get. I've never even removed the sticker from the caseback. The OEM straps and buckles are flawless. The SE box still has the protective plastic over the metal plates. Complete with triple boxes and all papers, books and accessories.

There are only 3 very faint marks I can find anywhere on the watch, all of which were there when I bought it (they are so shallow that I didn't even notice them until I'd gotten the watch home.) First, there is a tiny hairline on the bezel near 3:00 - see pix. Second, on one lug, there is a hairline that runs parallel to the Ti grain and was probably put there by the factory during finishing. Finally, there is the typical faint line on the crownguard caused by operating the lever.

The retail price on this model is $17,600 USD. I am asking $13,000 plus shipping & insurance. CONUS only. Payment accepted in cash, by wire, or through Paypal with buyer paying fees. Interesting trades considered. Scammers and lowballers, don't waste your time. Note: I am fairly new to this site and have few references here, but I can prove my credentials and a face-to-face deal (in MI) is welcome. Thanks for looking!
