·Pushers and crown are wrong.The dial is poor, case is badly polished.
Anyone think that the No.6 ends are aftermarket?.

·Why would a reputable dealer even sell a piece like this?
I wouldn’t call myself a “Reputable dealer” if I were offering this watch.
To be honest, it’s junk.
Oh, and the end links look like replicas as well (take off another $2,000 from its “value”).

·I was looking at the pushers too. But I could not tell with certainty. How can you tell?.

Well, there's a 50/50% chance to find the wrong one, since at least one is different.
The end pieces are strange, I agree.

·LOL! Yes, that's obviously the true answer. But dealers sometimes have standards regarding the quality of the pieces that they are willing to have associated with their name.
Nah, those examples usually just go to ebay under their pseudonym.

··@SpeedyBirthYearNah, those examples usually just go to ebay under their pseudonym.
.. and on there, I would expect a rather poor specimen like this one to sell at no more than 5k USD. And even that would be more than I would be willing to pay for it. It's had a hard life, this one.
(On second thought; only the bracelet - without the end links - might be really worth something)

··Prolific Speedmaster HoarderAsking price is $10,000 negotiable to maybe $8,000 I would expect. Comes from a reputable dealer with a 2y warranty.

·Dial is terrible and makes me wonder about the condition of the movement.
The photos suck too (while high resolution, they don’t show a lot), so it’s hard to work out the watch’s details. Too many questionable bits, like the end links, hands and pushers. (The crown is wrong for sure.)
On the information available, I wouldn’t be a buyer at any price. I’d rather start with a watch that’s closer to okay.

I wouldn't touch this watch with a barge pool. It's very ugly and as such way overpriced. To me it has the look of a dealers part bin put together and I'd be surprised if an Extract would come back with good news
