There is a nice-looking Aqua Graph Mk IV at Belmont Watches: https://www.belmontwatches.com/products/1969-enicar-aqua-graph-mk-iv-reverse-panda Note: I did not look closely, so am not confirming correctness. See
I am not affiliated with Belmont, but did buy a watch from them a year ago and...
I meant no disrespect to the seller as he does disclose. I posted because it's an interesting dial with a bunch of random parts. Don't see that every day. One of the crazier ones I have seen!
I give credit for going through the trouble of getting all those mismatched parts to fit.
Look at this monstrosity. The dial is legit, I think, and a rare variant of the Aqua Graph. Nothing else is correct.

This is so...
It sold at only $6,508. Not a good sign for Enicar and Sherpa Graph values in general and MK III in particular.
Granted, photos were poor, there was no movement photo, and the chrono seconds hand looked bent, so maybe not that weak. I still expected a stronger result given the condition and...
Thanks for the tip! I am aware of that one, but it's overpriced, especially with incorrect crown. Add in sales tax plus import duties and it is a fortune (for me).
The watch need not be mint condition but all-correct or close to correct is preferred.
I also have watches to trade, if that is of more interest. Doing some rotation in my collection presently.
Thanks,

The dial does not look that bad to me but you are likely more discriminating. I see many radium watches with grey lume. I don't mind it on that color scheme but taste is a matter of.taste as they say!
Does that price indicate to you the market/value is declining? I would have expected a little higher even with the concerns. That said, I realize auctions are always tricky to use for market valuation.
Yes, indeed. I am confident saying there is not a nicer one in existence. But with limited funds and only two wrists, it must go to a new steward. I never liked wearing it because it is too nice. I prefer nice, all-original pieces, not near-perfect ones.
