Yes, I won the auction ... still a bit in shock. I hear what
@yako54 and
@MMMD are saying, and perhaps I shouldn't have posted it here, and reached out to experts by DM instead. So maybe I overpaid. On the other hand, very little flies under the radar on eBay, and there were three of us who put very similar values on it, so perhaps it was inevitable ... but I apologize if people think my posting was inappropriate.
I have been looking for several years, and it has been hard to find a legit 13zn except for the apparently pristine pieces that are listed for astronomical prices on dealer websites or sell for astronomical prices at major auctions. Anything else I see is a re-dial or is completely trashed. This one has flaws but is still appealing to me.
Perhaps I will start a new thread with photos when it arrives. Other examples I have seen of this reference are listed as 36mm, so I will measure it and see whether it is 35mm or 36mm. I would be very grateful for suggestions about what to do with it from others who have similar Longines pieces. I won't be rushing to make any decisions.
