Lovely frames those marins, had a few when I started riding and my gf has one as a daily beater .
These were reasonably high in the the , and the ones I have had have been ox platinum or something similar . Made by true temper I believe, and a double butted Cromoly. Not super light , but super tough . -

Just wasted a few minutes of my life trying to buy a frame from @colnago_costa
Agreed a deal over the weekend for the Merckx on classified at £350 , only to be told today ( as was hoping to pick up tonight ) no deal anymore as he has accepted the full asking from someone else . He seems fine with this , justification being I negotiated a discount and he has been messed about before on this forum . Hmm …
Anyhoo them the facts , and not going to say anymore .. -

Problem with my Merckx was someone had tightened the seat clamp , without a post in it , and all of the rubbing was coming from the top of the seat cluster as you have kinda alluded to. I fixed mine by levering with a big screwdriver , but the smart fix is to put a bolt through and have it push against a flat washer inside of the seat cluster slot if that makes sense , will need a slim nut on the bolt also inside the gap. So effectively you are able expanding it ..

Yep has a cool shiny case back . In truth feels very similar to cheaper g shocks but I am liking the slightly more pro feel
