·Good evening everybody,
not too long ago, I - rather jokingly - offered one of my "50£-max Isolation Challenge"-finds and was surprised when it sold quickly, quite a few people responded positively and it is now in the hands of a happy new owner. Well, on my path to more space in the watch drawer, I'm parting with another cheap&cheerful example.
(If you don’t know what I‘m talking about, here’s the link to the original thread: https://omegaforums.net/threads/isolation-challenge-buy-a-watch-for-£50-max.112568/ )
It's made by Anker, a small German company that ceased to exist ages ago. The movement is a manual, 17 rubis, and most importantly: It's 70s as f... ...Farrah Fawcett in Charlie's Angels. I mean, look at this dial:
Yes, it's completely weird. In a very lovable way.
The Watch
Brand: Anker
Age: ca. 70s
Movement: hand wound
Size: 40mm without crown
Bracelet: Vintage stainless steel, not specific to the watch but is comfy to wear and works a treat
Condition
It's in a good condition, there are a few scratches, as can be seen in the pictures, but overall the impression is quite nice. Please refer to the pictures for details, they are not manipulated and part of the description. There is some wear on the chrome of the crown. Plexi and dial are also in good condition.
Technically, it runs well. It winds up very easily, and while I wouldn't want to promise chronometer certified accuracy, I'm confident the clean movement will be within a minute a day. Service history is unknown.
Can I actually trust that guy?
I’d like to think so. On this forum, I have 9 reviews so far (6 as a seller, 3 as a buyer):

I’m also happy to provide multiple positive feedback on another watch forum (all as a seller), as well as a verification through my eBay-account that has been standing for 18 years, with >1700 reviews, 100% positive. Please do ask.
Payment, Shipping & Returns
Payment is accepted via PayPal, bank transfer or cash in person. A coffee would be included in a personal transaction.
The watch is located in Germany, insured shipping (500€ of insurance value) is:
5€ within Germany
14€ within Europe
45€ to most parts of the non-European world
I do accept returns, no questions asked, within 48 hours of arrival. Buyer is responsible for all cost of shipping. A chocolate bar or another non-licorice kind of sweet (buyers choice) is to be added to the parcel as compensation.
The Price
I'm asking what I paid for it, which is
39€
net to me.
If there are any more questions or requests for further pictures, please do let me know.
