Sorry if this is the wrong place for this. This 5585 is up for sale. I’ve asked for movement pictures which have been added. In the same email I asked the seller to explain the dial discrepancies as he claims it’s original. No answer. Currently at £396. I just can’t live with those minute markers so I’m going to pass. Or am I being too anal? Guess I’m looking for an expert opinion if I indeed should pass. Is this even worth the gold value? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11546839...dYtNeyiRTC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPYPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network
Helpful translation: "Whilst I have not timed it to the second..." equals "I have timed it, and it loses 10 minutes a day."
Excellent point. I can't believe I missed that. Another thing worth looking out for is a balcony-free home. Balconies present a greatly increased risk of severe shock. It is very common for collectors to fumble their watches while photographing them on their balconies. I would avoid any seller who does not disclose whether or not he/she has a balcony.
When I first saw this thread title, thought someone was asking advice on Baywatch. I was going to say, "AVOID." Unless you're German, as I hear David Hasselhof is VERY popular there.
