I got bored and bought some watches on eBay.

I hope they aren’t redials 😉

Jean Richard Aquastar

A couple of Doxa

The Professional is a full set from the orig owner with a provenance letter

An IWC 666 Ingenieur on GF BOR with an insane dial from the original owners family

A black dialed Connie piepan…

A great faded insert from the original owner

A fun V72 Angelus Yachting Chrono

And…even though it wasn’t on eBay, a 1 owner tropical 1016

Let’s see… ***My Ideas....***
$750 for Aquastar *** about right.
$4k for Professional *** with the extras: Yes. ***
$2k for Searambler *** very good. ***
$2.5k for IWC *** Hillarious dial ! Good price, if you like the dial.***
$650 for Connie *** Cheap. ***
$200 for 1675 insert and bezel ring *** Cheap ***
$1.5k for Angelus *** Rare version ; about right ***
$11.75k for 1016

*** I`m not a fan of brown dials , but that one is very even and therefore: Good price in the Rolex World ***
Stay bored and i send you a list, what i`m looking for..... Kind regards. Achim

Jesus! And to think my wife grumbles when I spend the odd £150 on a watch. The girl doesn't know how good she's got it! Seriously though, some very nice watches there.

Errr - are we using the same eBay?? Or is there some secret eBay that only you are allowed on?

Yep, same one…there is the reason that the “learn to fish” thread is a sticky.

I learned most of what I know on OF.

As I tell the wife, it’s better than golf…or hookers and blow

When I first got on here, I told my wife about @gemini4 and what he’d spent and how I wasn’t bad at all.

Ah the Angelus. I spotted that but thought there might be dial damage above the hole for the hands ? Is that right ? Don’t tell me if it isn’t as I’ll be kicking myself
