I am Huff, the results are in....

Looks all original, crown looks correct, it has the anti magnetic plate, the bezel was not scratched at 12 (contrary to the pictures) it was a dried white powdery residue that wasnt too hard to clean off and I don't even think it's ever been polished. Overall I'm pretty happy, most of my best eBay purchases come from vague descriptions/pictures.

The bracelet was is 1502 and it'll be going back on eBay shortly if anyone's interested.

 

Nice! Pls let us know if you posted it on ebay already. Additional hi res pics would be nice also. Thank you

 

Nice! Did you go in for 105.002 or 2998?

 

I was sure it was 2998-62

 

It's up now..

You were brave mate. What does the serial start with?

 

Not strange. Somebody is still living in 2013 when it comes to 2998 prices.

 

19584XXX, which means (according to the source below) it was one of the earliest productions with this reference.
