Horrible refinished dial and fake medallion to boot. 🤮

I would also use the 🤮 emoji, it's being sold by ew.

I think this may be the all-time winner.

How many grams of gold did he polish away?

[Edit: Sorry, still getting the hang of these forums. I was commenting on a post from 2016. 😀]

It’s actually stainless steel but I am sure ballast is required.

I don't think you need to worry about cutting yourself on the case edges, BUT, I would still see this as an opportunity.
Unless I am missing something (entirely possible), the bracelet, dial, and movement are ~ worth the starting bid. Source a new case, sell the old one, and you have a nice vintage Speedy for a little over $1k.

The whole 6:00 side of the case has been shortened.

Help a guy out--What do you think? Overpolished or "well loved?"

You guys are better at this than me but this one seems pretty brutal, no? (back especially, 4 o'clock area) At a local used watch dealer for $1900 US...
