FMJ 1/100 up for auction

[TNGoldbeard]

According to the guy who sold it, he used to work for oakley in photography/videography

This FMJ was the one filmed for the original video release

The one you had was the one filmed?

its 100 percent legit watch. i own two other FMJs myself.

why there are two 001/100s is quite strange, but oakley does weird numbering to begin with.

Not arguing it's legitimacy, but having two 001's certainly diminishes credibility and value. I'd be pretty upset at Oakley if I were Jloh.

my personal belief is it was used as a sales demo set to show it off to different shows to get people to buy a $9,000 watch from oakley.

i cant prove that, but considering theres actually another 001/100, that would make sense. why they would serialize it as one, i have no clue

if @JLoh wants to sell it back to me, id be interested to buy it LOL. He can PM me privately

So they did an incomplete pre-production set marked as 001 to use for marketing and whatnot then sold a full run of 100?

Posted same time, lol

im as confused as you. I have no idea.

we are all consumers, and to be honest, without provenance it's hard to speculate how things happened internally at HQ

 

[Steven Goldberg]

I can tell you. It is an awesome watch.
