    This Pre-Moon Speedmaster just sold on eBay, for what I would think is a low amount (5700 USD)

    Not sure if this has been discussed on the forum, but any thoughts on the low sale value? - if I had been watching closer I may have considered bidding! I know the dial is lume less(?) or appears so and the chronohand is incorrect, but the 1039 and 516's are a big plus.

    With that chrono sweep hand, it kinda makes me wonder what else is messed up

    I somehow missed it.

    But, aside from the wrong chrono hand, who busted up the case opening slots on the back?

    The best part was the bezel. Somebody got a deal, assuming there aren’t other problems with the watch.

    I can’t think of a time I ever bought a watch because of a bracelet, even in part.

    Serial and bracelet date are ok.

    I wanted to bid on it, but it ended late at night, so ciao Bella!
    It's a nice speedy as far as I'm concerned, movement is not only pretty clean but would also be OK with a DNN so the guy who got it will make a killing if he flips the bracelet, the bezel and the watch with a DNN & correct seconds hand. I'm not in this business though.

    I missed it. The seller made a big mistake by omitting the ref # from the auction title.

    For reference, the price chart puts a Good with do90 at 6800, head only. So yeah, good buy by the looks of it.
