Hard to know whether this will end up going for a good price and I don't know anything about the variants so maybe this is already overpriced, but with one bid, two days to go and the reserve dropped, maybe there's a chance someone will like this. It seems to be a nice example and I know there are many lovers of Polerouters here so thought I'd flag it up.

Fair as usual in your assessment but you should try buying in the USA from Australia. The variation in price in staggering ranging from US$20 to $65, the latter being USPS’s laughable Global Priority service in which anything delivered in less than 3.5 weeks is a total win. Note that in our currency the latter is nigh on $100, on which we also pay GST. (Not the fault of ebay or USPS admittedly)
Meanwhile comparative service from the UK costs less than $50 and takes 7-10 days.
Getting back to the original point though, it is obvious that some sellers fully intend to make up the margin on their ‘no reserve’ auctions by making sure they get the extra 10 or 20 quid regardless of your winning bid.

 

This beauty is offered at 220 GBP.

It’s 2am, guess what I’m doing.

Enicar does their version of the Polerouter. Stainless case, 35mm, seller says fully serviced and shows pics of it- that’s a good sign. Price seems good for a serviced wannabe Polerouter by a big name.

Sold! Not to me, anyone here?

 

Geez, talk about early birds. You guys must get a lot of worms.

 

I’m on a diet, which is why I post them here instead of eating them.

 

I plead the 5th on this one...

It wasn't my fault. I had an espresso after dinner and could not sleep...

 

It looks to be very nice and with a service, a very good deal.

 

I am actually chatting to the seller.

Very interesting guy. It seems like this is a hobby that he does for pleasure. Not doing it for a profit at all. Just enjoys bringing vintage watches back to life and getting them back in the hands of the public.

Definitely a seller to add a follow on over there.

He's servicing his own Rolexes... Has an insane collection of Enicar, Longines, etc. Has an amazing-looking Nautilus.

 

I love sellers like that! I met one that does old chronos who’s like that

 

Took a while to find something new. Hamilton at $150 anyone? https://www.ebay.com/itm/254962046346Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

 

That’s a dateline- someone make an offer on that fast!

 

And he has a nice little Roamer Anfibio for $129: https://www.ebay.com/itm/284277108362?hash=item42303c6e8a:g:ztAAAOSwSyNgi2gqPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

 

Very low starting bid.
Worth a look.

Very nice condition and very clean dial.
Movement looks good.
Case could use some TLC.

 

Same seller as above has a couple other Hamilton’s, all around $150 m/o.

Low Bin. Have to wonder why its marked down.
Dial a bit grody around the edges but deserves a proper restoration.

It looks like after a dry spell, bargain thread is having a feast today!

Stainless Wyler with a “rail” style dial (although this is not the railroad approved, it sure wants to be). Seller doesn’t mention size but assume around 33.5. The bezel is interesting, not engine turned, but kind of like it. Should clean up nicely.

Base metal bezel, so it might not clean up that well. Still a nice watch, and could be fine. It is hard to know until you lay eyes on it.

 

Love the dial on it.
