路I'm completely lost with this now. No idea which dial is/isn't with the watch, nor which dial was/wasn't sold for 7k.

路馃榾)) th茅 racing dial was sold last year for 7K , was mounted on a 2998-62/321 for an unknown reason, now the owner tes willing to sell the 2998-62 with the service dial and service hands for 8K but the value was below more or less 4 K to serve as donor watch .

路Yes the value of the watch in terms of parts is 4K
Case back. 1-1.5K
Case 1-1.5K
321 1.5-2K
But a crazy cowboy put 7K on te table told to the guy sell it right now, at the end was a piece of junk.

路so basically the owner had a nice 2998-62 with a lovely racing dial they then took it to a shop where they ripped them off by buying the dial for 7k and replacing it with a modern one.
the owner offered you the watch for 8k with the new dial
the owner offered you the watch for 8k with the new dial

路You got it 馃榾)))
But he case was not so nice , the serial number also discutable , at the end the bride was not interesting 馃榾))) , the only winner here was the guy that bought the racing dial , and now the seller that sold it for 7K to a cowboy.

路No because I have no idea of the price, but knowing how buy it for 7K I think they may offer 15K would be still a good deal

路A shame clearly ripped off last year , poor guy, he was feeling bad selling the dial last time , and was saying was fair they have to make the shop running and make profit , looks like was a huge profit , I suspect the shop as the racing model but I bad shape and this guy was Jesus Christ arriving with that dial.

路I got a totally different story about the watch from seller. I also didn't get a good vibe, he knew what was wrong with it and as soon as I mentioned it he packed up and left... Until this point he was playing dumb and was giving me super broad answers about details I was asking.
I have the feeling somebody will get bent over this watch as serial is super difficult to catch if you don't have a loupe. The part of the bridge had different color because the serial was brushed off and a new one was laser etched.
The step on the case back was barely visible.
I think somebody found a 321 movement and put the correct serial range to make a 2998-62 movement. The clutch was symmetric.
There was only a genuine 2998-62 case and funked up movement. Lots of money for spare parts.
