That's a nice watch. Pity it's been hyper-polished, but everything else looks very good.

I think that the hands on the eBay example maybe have been incorrectly replaced.

One is toss-up, two is a trend and three is a standard.

Unless you know where to source these hands, I'd stay away.

The other difference I can tell is that in my example, the lume is still present/has been relumed. Is there some other tell that I'm missing? 😕

No, you got it.

It could be that the excess (re)lume might be able to be removed and redone properly.

In other words, you could get lucky!

Agreed; especially considering most of the enamel has worn off of the case-back!



Can we see your case-back?! 🍿
Not today I'm off for the weekend and it's not on the phone Sorry

Oh, no worries, just when you have a chance! 😗

A Conquest with intact fish medallion is at the very top of my wish-list...



...if the medallion were better on the Chrono24 one above, I would have already put in an offer... love the PR feature, too!

I know it's a 13ZN but is it really worth this much money? $26k with 3 days left?

Not to me... but I like it better than Daytonas that might sell for 10x that price.

Here's another 13ZN from Argentina, this time in 18K YG. Worn dial, but still quite nice...

I know almost nothing about these, but I DO know this one is just slightly 😉 more affordable!

Perhaps because its not the original case? I only say this, because I've heard that they do that a lot in South America...

Authenticity comments on this one?

The dial is an obvious and poor redial and that's a huge detractor from value. When it comes to 13zn's, the dial can be up to 70% of the value.

Also the hands are incorrect. Probably a franken watch, though I can't completely rule out the case.
