    Apologies if the same watch's already featured in an existing thread.
    I thought the watch looked familiar and did a quick browse of existing threads but could not find it.
    With the increasing prices, I guess we will see more and more of such offerings.

    That's a nicely faded DO90 bezel! Too bad the dial isn't as pretty.

    Wow, that didn't take long. I don't begrudge people trying to make a profit off these quick turnarounds, seems a shame though. Barely got any time to enjoy that piece.

    Yes, it does look the same, especially the wristshot nato pic but the bezel looks different?
    Where the word 'tachymeter' is, there is a bit of fade that does not appear on the new offering?

    To me the pictures are the same recycled pictures from the initial seller in the UK, right down to the same times showing on the watch. Hopefully this isn't a hijacked eBay account and a scam. The seller only has a history of selling Houston Texans attire and platform pumps! Caveat emptor....

    Looks very similar to a Texas seller last week that reposted images of a Heuer. Scammers are at an all time high right now, be careful.

    Every time get excited over a piece there's either a scammer or some missing parts! Soon I dump my vintage fetish and order everything brand new!

    So the Heuer Autavia on eBay, what's wrong with that one?

    Spoke to one of its temporary owners last night, had to ask about it! He said he didn't quite like it and the Autavia (model in general) wasn't for him.

    Pretty sure it's haunted.
