    I don´t really like it, especially at that price.

    The case looks like it´s had some heavy polishing of the sides and back.

    Comparing the lume of the hands, which is very dark, to the dial, which appears very light, it could be suffering from the dreaded Speedmaster lume scrape, where all the luminous material is scrapped away to leave only the white batons of the dial.

    The endlinks have been trimmed to less than 20mm and don´t fit properly.

    I wonder if the bracelet a 1039 or a 1035, this makes a price difference, the 1039 being more expensive, also how many stretch links does it have?

    I would like to see high res case and dial pictures, they could be quite revealing.

    That's the key.
    Poor resolution pictures like that, always makes me think there's something to hide.

    Aha, I thought you were asking our opinions of how much we would be prepared to pay for it ;)

    Interesting take on ebay selling. Maybe the seller wants the prospective buyer to compare and then think the lower price is a bargain.
    I'm not that impressed at the lower price either.
