Any thoughts on the other one?

 

I sort of like it, but it is NOT in excellent condition. Look at all the dings in the case and the facet between the side and top is polished away. $600 MAXIMUM, and that's only because of the seller. If it goes for more somebody's going to be disappointed.

This is a much better case - you can clearly see the facet on the edge. The dial has some measles though.

 

Thanks focus, do you see anything wrong with the movement on the second one (different colors?) or could it be just the angle and light? And what could be a fair price for that piece in your opinion?

By the way do you think that rubeola could be cleaned?

regards,

Lest

 

It might have replacement parts, but if so they're correct. Or it might be from cleaning chemicals during service.

Given that it isn't perfect, but still a decent wearable correct (and probably original) piece, I'd say anything under $475 would be doing very well. $550-ish might be more reasonable because C-case fans like that bracelet.

It's possible, but never count on it. In most cases those dots are mold that's under the clear coat - the result of moisture in the watch.

 

Thanks for your input focus
