I see the problem. You are thinking "buyer's mint", and he's talking "seller's mint". As you can see they are not the same.
Perhaps we are misreading the heading? It's not the watch that's mint, but rather the servicing that was performed mintly? [emoji848]
I probably would not have used mint, but it is not terrible for a 1968 vintage??? I hope whoever buys that A) can get it a little cheaper than that as it needs a little work and it is not cheap work to do. B) has the lume stabilized on the hands. Or they will need another service soon.
Of COURSE I mock the "patina". You collectors have decided amonst yourself what "collectible" means and I stand aside laughing my ass off. That dial is not likely to peform as is was certifiieid as asceio.
