I want to know where he got his numbers from. If he can't even figure out how to put the correct title for his listing, where the heck did his $1,300 price evaluation come from?!?!

What did he google?

good luck buddy....

Killer! I love Belforte... lots of fun variations

More eBay troubles. I bid on the Certina seen here a few days ago and won it for $234. I paid, then got this note from the seller:

sorry sir but this is my first time selling anything on ebay .not sure how all this works but I can not sell this watch for that price


I told him to refund my money and list the watch at a fixed price. He said he didn't have the money yet so couldn't refund it. He did manage to relist the watch in approximately two minutes:

I'm not worried about getting my money back, but this is really annoying.

I hope you are able to leave negative feedback for that

This is absolutely outrageous. Those who’ve advised a complaint are quite right.
That said, a quick look at vintage Certina DS on eBay shows quite a few perfectly nice watches at a sensible price.

This is a killer gilt & radium eterna. Auction ends in a few hours. A hair under $400 at this moment. I’m tempted.

Spotted it before but import fees stopped me. It'd be well over 900 USD in the EU. Did you get it? If so, gratz!

The picture engraved on the caseback is a real trip. Looks like the watch is in a vacuum chamber with a hand pumping the air out? It is called an AIRVAC after all.

I've often wondered about the effect of a vacuum or nitrogen filled case on the functions of the movement and longevity of the lubricants.
Whale oil and Blackfish oils appear to withstand years of exposure to the vacuum of space in NASA applications.
