    Couldn't pass on this, may should have, but she's mine now.
    I think I purchased it correctly (re: price), but the one o'clock lug is painfully bad, hence the possibily NSFW in the title.
    Only other issue is stem won't turn hands to set time but seems to be running strong and movement is really clean, along w what looks like original crown.
    So goes the WIS acquisition sickness

    Yeah, that lug is really bad, doesn't even match the others, original broken off and a replacement was grafted on.

    Grafted on poorly with no regard for the integrity of the case. Oy vey it's a bad fix.
    The watch was three American Benjamins asking price and I bit, for better or worse.
