    Either that or someone is going to get a real bargain - really clean DO90 bezel, CB case, 1039 bracelet (I think), original hands... But the seller is recently registered. Might be the bargain of the century, might be a scam.

    Can't say I'm not tempted, but I imagine he's gotten several emails already.

    Scam, don't waste your time unless you want to mess with them like @OmegaBear did in another thread.

    Ask to pick up and pay in person. See what he says.

    I see that the seller has just registered on the forum and placed the sales post on the same day; his sole post. Hopefully no one falls for it.

    I have messed with this guy on Tudor stuff before. He says he is in the states but his email replies happen during european hours. I have asked for proof of life photos and the watches are always at work or in a safe deposit box. Always something nice at 1/3rd a good deal pricing

    Dammit, I'm getting old. If I ask again go to the ΩF armory and sign out an aluminum bat to beat it in to me.

    Just wondering who would get fooled by the low price.I can see how person on the CL could go underpriced, but if someone got to the watch selling Web site :
    A) person really out of shape and having hard time to find the same watches for sale to come up with reasonable price.
    B) scammer is trying to get you going with the underpriced watch.

    Yeah, exactly. There are honestly enough of these out there that it's possible, if not probable, to find one as a "drawer find". But this guy has the reference number etc, and has it priced so far below just the component part prices it's ridiculous. You are telling me he figured out how to post it on a watch forum for sale, but couldn't take 5 minutes to google 145.012 to figure out a ballpark figure on value?
