We had a gentleman come in the other day with a Nautilus, box, papers, tags, still wrapped in the plastic bag with stickers.
Beautiful watch, right weight, markings, etc. etc....we almost took the plunge but a real 5711/1A-010 model has a Sapphire Case Back, this one did not!!
I asked if we could open it to check the movement and he said we could....sure enough it was a high end Swiss ETA movement with correct markings but not up to the Patek Philippe standard of excellence.
We passed and he was not happy, he paid $5,000 for it!!! I feel bad for him, I really do.
