    Hi there, I do not have the watch yet,so I can post additional pictures. I just won the auction and haven't even paid. I just want to make sure it's original. I asked the seller and he said he wasn't 100% sure. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    No pictures of the movement.
    No pictures of the inside caseback
    fuzzy pictures of the dial
    Worn case back
    No listing of the reference
    Wrong modern box.
    That is about all we know right now.
    Sold cheap, so who knows.

    Dial looks original, gold medallion on back is correct. Case shape is correct for ref 14902 and if it is powered by a 561, it is a good deal.

    I believe you are quite correct Hoi. My point is that this was a dangerous purchase for someone without knowledge and little facts provided by the seller. Price was good.

    That looks like a very good deal indeed.

    The power of decent photos...

    Needs a proper crown, watch looks to have been polished too hard.

    If the movement and case reference checks out, then it will be a bargain.

    Someone's a gambler. I hope it pays off for you.
