I would personally pass on this - the dial while looks original has a blemish and the case has been polished quite a bit. These are fairly common watches that I would hold out for an excellent example.

 

Here, compare:

eBay (167005)



Mine (14381; albeit not directly comparable):

 

Not a good reference to compare with in Adams picture. Here is a better one with a 168.005 . There is nothing wrong with the dial on the watch for sale. The blemish looks like it may be just a light reflection. The case has been over zealously polished, as Mike stated and I would wait for a better one.

 

Hoi raises a good point as my example of a 168.005 also, like Hoi's 167.005 has the sunburst continuing outside the chapter. However, I have seen many 167.005 with the sunburst stopping after the drop-off and then going circular. I still believe the dial is correct. As Desmond often says, the only way we may be sure here is to remove the dial and look at the back.

 

Sorry Hoi, I see nothing wrong with the dial. I think the seller used a flash to take the pictures and the light passing through the crystal (which is likely scratched a bit) caused some shadows on the dial. The picture at this angle shows no white splotches on the dial:



I took a look at photos of my 167.005 and they show anything from no sunburst at all to extreme luster like the above example under different lighting conditions. IMO, all we are really judging here is the skill of the photographer.

Otherwise, the crystal is correct and crown is correct. I agree with MSN that the case has be overpolished a bit. I wish there was at least one movement picture. In the end, it might be the seller who pays for not putting that in, as he will likely get a little bit less that what he should for this watch.

But that may be someone else's gain...

It's not just the listings on eBay. I'd say 90%+ of all watches over 50 years old have been polished like that. MSN and Hoi own most of the remaining 10% .

Polishing the case was considered part of routine service back then. Watches that have never been polished are likely to need service to the movement.

On this example, I'd ask the seller privately for a movement shot. If the price stays below US$800, go for it.
