To bad, there is considerable lume loss on a couple of the markers otherwise I would go for it. I have a spare bezel looking for a watch 😁

I’ve bought more of these than I care to count, some successfully some not. Guessing 145.012-67 but keen to see what it ends at with no bezel and a lot of question marks, but its possible there’s a nice watch hiding under all of that.

I assume some eBay sellers intentionally court those risk takers amongst us to drum up business. A fuzzy photo allows you to unconsciously project what you’re hoping for onto the pictured watch.

Otherwise, it’s hard to explain how often a listing is spoiled by bad photos.

BTW, my sympathies about your beautiful Longines. I cannot believe it hasn’t sold.

LoL too true, though that was looong ago, right? ... Well, today? not sure this was even possible given the varied advances haha. One must be going for that look purposefully, and I'm not the best pic taker

It will !
My guess : hammer at $5000
There's a very nice dial underneath.

5k "Project" watch without a movement pic or any decent pictures at all. Could be an 861 in there for all we know lol.

Oh my – looks like someone sniped it. Time to see which dealer it shows up at, I guess.

Edit: Looks like the seller remade the listing as a BIN. Initially thought it was sniped by someone and settled off of eBay, as that seems to be the case when sellers suddenly end their auction before the expiration.

And, it's gone. I got a notification the auction ended and that it was relisted. Looks like someone made a deal at $3,500.

It didn't sell for 3500. Seller ended the auction early. I'm sure an undisclosed sum.
