    I'm tired, I bought this as it popped up, but the seller cancelled and added 2k to the price.

    Should I be a) pissed-off, or b) thankful he helped me dodge a bullet ?

    I recall seeing a "Seamaster" Speedy before but couldn't find it, but maybe it's the same one.

    Edit... Now this is funny. It just sold again in minutes at 6500. Will it be back in 5 minutes at 8500 ? Or I wonder if someone poached it after the sale ?

    Looks like a crappy relume and the movement number appears off too.
    I wouldn’t be too disappointed

    The annoying part was the reason given for the cancellation was that I wasn't in the US, then he added 2k onto the asking price which I think demonstrates the real reason. Looked like a great DON, no ?

    No doubt about that, but as a parts watch it seemed pretty fair.

    Looking on watchcount it seems he sold for 4.5k second time round too.

    Dodged a bulet imo. If this kind of watch is now worth 4500 I'll be sitting out of the Speedmaster game for a while.
