    Hey guys. Want to ask before I buy (even though guy says I can pay for return shipping and done).
    Looking at the watch. Looks like there is some corrosion but no red flags for me otherwise. Seller says crown comes off stem but that watch moves for a while - so I'm not too worried the watch is broken. How much does a repair like that cost?

    I found one similar with lume (at $450).

    Priced under $300. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Alright - I spoke with buyer and he let me put it on hold - so it is sold for now. He won't ship till I give him the green light.

    Called him up (great guy) before I bought it and he sent me a pic of the inside case back. It reads:

    (He also told me it says Swiss on the bottom of the dial even though the pics don't look it)

    This one is at the lowest end of the desirability spectrum, gold-filled US made case with an inscription.

    I think its still overpriced considering its going to need a service.
