    Wait a sec.... isn't MKelley asking about this watch too?

    The lugs have lost their crispness but it doesn't look terrible. A cursory glance says it's just okay. I wouldn't put out more than $700 - $750 for it.

    Think he is looking at another. Different seller on this one. Thanks Dennis.

    Hmmm, what's the odds that a shill outbid the real potential buyers?

    EDIT: Just checked - the "buyer" has only 95% feedback - pretty low, but probably not a shill with 400+ feedbacks.

    That happens more than you'd expect. Don't know why but you could ask the seller.

    I did ask about this one in an earlier thread. I don't recall which one. I did remove it from my radar. But ulackfocus' critique is familiar.

    It looks very familiar to me too. It wasn't me. I checked, it's not the same watch. The one I was looking out & decided to pass had a dial that did not look as good as this one.

    That's the one that I thought might have been missing the black paint on the markers, but turns out their either white gold or most likely chrome plated as Hoi pointed out.

    This is true. I just thought if others hadn't seen it & wanted to comment :)

    The dial looks moldy and the case looks over polished. You would have been better off with one of the two SS ones.
