Did anyone here win this 2998-4?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Omega-Spee...=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Ended a couple of days back and sold for $5,300 - but seller was in UK and shipping from Ukraine, and unresponsive to boot. Dial and hands look shot to me, but what do I know. Bottomline was, it sounded too good to be true so... thoughts?

All pics from eBay listing, no higher resolution available...are they from any watch we know here from the bezel damage, etc.? #SpotterChallenge

First question is whether the seller actually has the watch. Most visible feedback is low end stuff

I would say no there is no watch, the mention of FAP caseback engraving is the first warning!

Just an obvious scam. Photos probably scraped from somewhere.

Plus, no image of the caseback either
