    I'm looking at this one and trying to get some funds together (although it's unlikely I'll find them) to buy it. As far as I can see it looks good but I know I'll probably miss something essential. Ref nr is good (1537xxx). Any comments? May be I can plunder one of the bankaccounts of my kids. College is overrated...

    "Liked" solely on the basis of you considering plundering one of your kids' college funds, a solution that I emphatically endorse. :D

    IMHO, it looks honest and original over all besides the crown. A correct naiad crown can be sourced quite easily. In fact a member here was offering to help another member with a naiad crown on the WTB page.

    I hope if you do manage to bag it that you're going to keep all that lovely, original vintage cheese?

    :D

    Well. I'm first trying to think what would be a fair offer. I know these skyrocketed lately. What would be a fair offer in your opinions if you do the plus and the minus of this example?

    Really, I'm the worst person to ask, I'm always surprised for how much watches sell for these days.

    I think it all depends on who is selling it and how many other interested parties there are. It certainly looks fresh to the market, but it also looks like it's being sold by somebody who:
    a. Knows how to photograph a watch, and
    b. Knows enough about the latest watch trends to not clean it!
    Makes me think it won't come cheap...

    OK as someone who doesn't 'collect' and only wears, I wouldn't go near that if it was more than £50 :eek:, so I'm eternally grateful than I'm a shallow person, who just likes something nice to put on my wrist:). A new one is certainly on my wish list though.
