70’s SS Hamilton automatic on a temporary sale on Etsy for $170 CDN (located in the US). Pics show a bracelet, but it isn’t mentioned in the ad. I thought this would be a good addition to join the his & hers thread

Ok, I'm cornfused! Seller sent me an offer, I sent a counter offer, and now I have a little blue banner saying the seller has sent me an offer of the amount I entered as the counter offer...and I have no notifications to accept. I'm thinking theBay has a glitch and meant to say 'you sent a counter offer' that expires in x time.

Having limited experience on theBay, has anyone else ever seen this glitch?

Same. I'll step aside as I don't want to snag this from you. Seems you put an offer on it before I...best of luck!

And Dibs if you get it and ever decide to part with it in the future!

I put it on my watch list and that got the same offer. I feel like he knows we are circling it.

I kind of feel like a vulture...which reminds me of lyrics in an old punk song..."great legs, too bad about your face!"

At this point, stop being polite. This is like watching 3 guys at a 4-way stop sign- somebody just buy the damn watch! I paid more than he's asking for mine (and mine is pretty flawless- the crap in my pic is reflections and dust) and I would pay it again, it's an awesome watch (although I hope some of those deeper scratches in the crystal of the listed watch polish out). Wyler 660's are awesome watches, they are the best kept secret in vintage sport watches- at 35.5mm they wear perfectly and are built like tanks. They are totally undervalued and I avoid ever saying anything about them becuase this forum is like a megaphone to the world and those of us who collect them want to keep them cheap- there, I said- I've blown the lid off the Wyler secret.
I wouldn't sell mine for twice what the listed watch is going for- just saying.

strap alert

looks like a 20mm..maybe 19mm........worth 50-100 alone

watch seems like a larger skin diver as well. but it comes with a few issues..

shoot for $75-100 offer ...contemplate fixing or re-sell without strap..if you're in the market for a vintage tropic

Well, you’d convinced me, I was gonna swoop in and steal the prize but someone beat me to it. Hope it was one of the pussyfooted.
