    Hi OFers,

    I received ‘second chance’ on ebay for $400 on this polerouter.

    However, all the biddings are masked as private listing, So I really cannot understand what is going on. is this all fabricated biddings the seller made? or did I pick up a bargain?

    regarding the watch, altho it’s heavily polished and has replaced crown and back, I think it’s ok to some degree. however, I’d like to listen to experts before I take the chance (or not)

    Thanks!!

    I know nothing about this brand, but in view of the somewhat questionable second chance offer, the polished case and the replaced crown and caseback, I don't know why you are even entertaining the idea of buying it.

    ETA: Now that I've seen your other thread, I see this is solid gold which I had not realised from the above post. Looks more risky than ever! If something seems too good to be true....

    I agree... Actually I don't understand what 'private listing' means, but I think it's fishy. Sorry for the duplicate thread.

    No one sells this watch for this price. Run ... and don't look back.
