Welcome speedmaster71 - you're introducing yourself with the correct watch :-)
I have some questions:

What's the condition inside? No corrosion, all original?

Are you sure about the model number 9933? AFAIK, Macrolon is 9939.

What type of module is it, 24h or 12h?

And finally: where are you located? Are you ebay's "speedmaster71"? I'd be rather reluctant to pay 1100€ to a total stranger...

I picked up some information on the net regarding the numbers of GP led watches produced.
The info came from a dedicated GP site so I would expect it to be accurate - unless someone knows different :?:

Ref: 9934, 18k rolled gold, units produced - 2.200
Ref: 9931, Stainless steel, units produced - 4.000
Ref: 9939, Macrolon, units produced - 2.000

Only 8200 produced in total :!: if it is accurate it makes it all the more surprising the numbers of watches that has been recently offered for sale.

Also gives a reason for the price they can achieve.

That information is most likely from Jürgen Hofstädter's site - the only serious source of information about the GP I ever found on the web.
Yes, the GPs are rare - and beautiful - watches :-)

Hi rewolf,
I have correct the watch ref. that is 9939.
I will post module pictures and provide the information you have requested. The clock working properly but now I can't answer to your question because I've never opened it.
I understand your suspicion to pay a stranger, who would not? I'm from Italy and my ebay user is speedmaster971 ;-)
