    depend really don't it on how much you use it, if you got everything it came with or not ... remember seeing it on a oris morgan watch so I put mine on and it did not do half as good as the one I saw ..you just can never tell but as you know fads / taste change leave it to long you could lose out ..but then again it could just keep getting better as I do believe Eddie watches really retain their value more then some small watch companys do ...

    Well, it's kind of on the back burner at the moment as it got squeezed out by the Air Ministry & Speedbird; both of which I like more..... which should tell me something.
    I have the full kit & case, but like you say: You have to pick the right time and hope the right buyer/s is/are out there looking....... Like I wasn't with the PRS-36 that Matt snapped up the other day.

    yeah I saw it thought about and hmmm missed it

    well to be fair their will be people search for it maybe as I search time factor on ebay most mornings to see whats around theirs a prs-20 up that looks interesting but reckon it will go to high ... plus a prs -37 and a prs-50 and a dreadnought around as well so seems a good time in some ways ..if you wack a nice safe reserve price maybe so you don't loose out then if it don't sell well then it won't sell at all

    Those are enormous if you haven’t got an 8” wrist. My 7.5” wrist wasn’t nearly enough.

    The fit of the wire lugs is also a bit variable. One of the lugs on mine had a fair bit of free play. Also, the strap doesn’t bridge the two ends of the wire lugs that well. It needs a tube to avoid a lump or dent in the middle.

    And the numerals are too close to the edge.

    Not one of Eddie’s best, to be honest.

    Thankfully it's aftermarket, not factory.

    yeah it's a design flaw on those cases I have been using that type case for a build am doing and it has all the same issues

    also when I first check it was lower priced but got a bid on now at a higher rate so think possible carry on building my own but using a pw dial

    Been there - done that, as you well know.

    The '20 & '50 do nothing for me and the same with the Dreadnought.

    yeah after a prs 40 if the price is too good to say no too ,,plus maybe a prs -25 if I can get a bargain or maybe a precista almost had one bought and paid for one then seller message me a day later and said it was faulty and cancelled the sale and refunded me always wonder if he had a better offer

    yeah the 37 liked it in theory but not so much on the wrist for some reason
