Looks nice, even though it's not cheap ....
And correct me if I'm wrong but the dial looks original to me.

Well, again, whoever wants it - go for it. I'm not in buying mode (or if I am, not for something quite like this).

That's what we call a linen dial because of the woven pattern. Nice watch, and it certainly looks like an original dial although the crown is a replacement. If you can get it near the starting price you'd be doing well.

True, had a look through the seller's previous sales and it looks like they could be (are) scrapping gold watches for the gold. If anybody needs a complete movement or parts, they might be a good source.

The OP watch sold with just one bid at the asking price.
Did anyone from here get it?
