    Hello, I came across a bezel that I believe is very rare and need expert opinion. Pictures are attached. Any help confirming if this is in fact rare is appreciated.

    There are certain members who are far more willing to help new members that take the time to post an avatar pic...

    Yes it is rare.

    I was given this by my grandfather who was a watchmaker I want to get confirmation that this is in fact rare. Do you think the condition is really rough?

    I'm hardly an expert in this and can't speak to authenticity, but yes the condition is rough, but given the age of it.

    You need to have 200 posts before you can sell on the forum.

    Oh I see. Even if I have references from my eBay sales and the other forums? I can't become a pledge member in order to post stuff for sale on here?

    Unfortunately no watches. He was a watchmaker and didn't sell watches. I did have some other rare 70's inserts for another watch brand. Not sure if I'm allowed to mention other brands on here.

    Yes you can mention other brands, even whole sections on other watches, take a look around, some might be offended if you mention quartz though so be careful ;)

    Even in meteor shower survivor state, you will find it is surprisingly valuable.

    What makes me think we're being used like an Escort Service :whipped:
    Maybe not: No one is paying ;)
