    Wow, that's really quite a LE. I didn't realise the quantities were so small.

    The 17C is one of the best quartz chronos available. I have a Tag SEL with the same movement (judging by the fact it has the same features in the same arrangement of hands) and the PRS is far easier to read.

    I'm so pleased to have 17A No 98 :D I was lucky to get it after missing out on them from new.

    You can now imagine what is going on in the Burns Household.

    Stripping Nato's off all my Precista's to establish the LE number :bounce:

    I had a 17A and it's one of the few watches I've sold that I really regret letting go. With only 100 made, I suspect it will be hard to replace as well.

    Re: PRS-17A, How many were made...?

    Thanks Eddie - Hopefully I won't ever have to sell mine. My 17A is #46 and new PRS-14 is #40. Perhaps if I save up enough for 5 more of eddie's master pieces then I could be in with a chance of getting a 'precista straight flush' :bounce:

    Perhaps we could start a PRS-17 owners list if they haven't all disappeared into the ether...?

    17Q 0690083 on black darlena leather and canvas lives in Poland and it's fine
    Another 17Q - my first, which I sold to buy the second (unfortunately I do not have its number) is also somewhere in Poland.

    Damn those small production numbers. I feel the odds stacked against me, even when my post count opens the heavenly gates of Sales Corner

    Eddie 17A - 53 (Ist owner)
    Eddie "14" - 35 (?)
    Eddie 50 LE - 44 (?)
    Eddie 50B - 46 (Ist owner)

    That makes collecting "Eddies" so special... :bounce:
