Up to $2000 - I wonder how this will escalate overnight, not sure if a sneaky BIN offer would suffice now!

I don't think he's crazy at all. I think he's just fed up with being messed about in the past and making a point in a humorous way, esp the bit about the medication. I'm sure that if you messaged him you'd get a perfectly sensible response.

If you ask me the use of all caps multi-coloured Comic Sans alone should be part of the DSM-IV 😉

Am with @Alpha on this one. It did bring a smile to my face this morning, whilst reading.
I too sense he will be letting it ride now. Given where the price went to off the bat. Well at least I hope he lets its ride. Would love to see where this one ends up.📖

Thought this should be saved as a future model.

OMEGA SEAMASTER 300
THIS IS A 100% AUTHENTIC SWISS MADE OMEGA SEAMASTER 300 STAINLESS STEEL VINTAGE DIVER'S MENS WATCH.
I BOUGHT THIS AGES AGO FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER'S ESTATE AND AM OFFERING THIS IN AN AS FOUND CONDITION (SEE PHOTOS), NO TARTING UP FOR SALE, SO WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET.
WATCH HAS ORIGINAL SIGNED OMEGA DIAL, CROWN, PLASTIC CRYSTAL, CASE AND MOVEMENT. ORIGINAL NEVER RE PLATED FACTORY DIAL, STAINLESS STEEL CASE AND CROWN,HORSE
SEAMASTER BACK LOGO AND BAND.
THIS IS AN OLD WATCH SO THE CRYSTAL IS SCRATCHED, THERE IS SOME MARKS ON THE BACK, THERE IS THE USUAL BUILD UP OF 50 YEARS OF GUNK AND GRIME AND THE BAND IS WORN SO BID ACCORDINGLY.
THE WATCH RUNS BUT WOULD OBVIOUSLY BENEFIT FROM A SERVICE.
I AM NO WATCH EXPERT SO PLEASE CHECK THE PHOTOS CLOSELY, ASK ANY QUESTIONS AS THERE ARE NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS.
PLEASE ENQUIRE AS TO POSTAGE AND INSURANCE COSTS WHICH IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PURCHASER.(SEE MY CONDITIONS)
THIS IS NO TIME TO SIT AND WATCH SO GET BIDDING AS TIME IS TICKING. BIDDING STARTS AT 0.99 CENTS THE REST IS UP TO YOU

MY RANT
PHOTO'S FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION AND ARE WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS SO THERE ARE 6,000 WORDS OF DESCRIPTION HERE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAVE NOT SOLD ANYTHING ON E-BAY FOR OVER A YEAR.


I HAVE JUST FINISHED THERAPY BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE OF GRAPPLING WITH ALL THE CHANGING EBAY AND PAY PAL RULES AND REGULATIONS AND ANSWERING CRAZY BUYERS QUESTIONS.



MY THERAPIST SAYS IT IS NOW SAFE FOR ME ONCE AGAIN TO TEST THE EBAY GODS BUT I MUST AT ALL TIMES STAY ON MY MEDICATION, SO HERE GOES.

BECAUSE OF THE TIME DELAY SINCE MY LAST SELLING FORAY ALL MY WONDERFUL SELLER FEEDBACK HAS PROBABLY DROPPED OFF AND I MAY LOOK LIKE A NEW SELLER, BUT REST ASSURED I AM AN OLD HAND AND AN OLD FART SO YOU CAN BUY WITH CONFIDENCE.



I have found that 99% of people are WONDERFUL ,1% are the exactly the opposite

If you are part of the 1% please go away now,

IF YOU WANT “NEW” THEN GO TO KMART

ARRIVE WITHIN A DAY OR 2 BECAUSE IT WONT

I DON’T COMMUNICATE UNLESS THE QUESTION IS WORTHY OF AN ANSWER

OR THE ITEM IS VALUABLE


IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE ALL OF THE ABOVE YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE

YOU ARE PART OF THE 1% THAT MAKE THE ON-LINE WORLD STINK.

It's funnny how ebay works sometimes, at the same time as the 2913 from our special seller, there's also this

It's not everyday one of those comes up, so it almost seems like it could be fate for the eventual high bidder.
Do your own due diligence on the bezel, but potentially a unusually uncommon opportunity to make it complete straight away.

Good-looking (underneath scratched crystal) 145.022-74 or early 145.022-76. Seller doesn't mention anything about service history but the price is pretty good IMO. Replace / polish the crystal, add a little lume re-fill in the hour hand and you'd have a pretty attractive watch!


Aaaaand it's gone 🙁

Oh thank God. Otherwise I would've had to make an offer, and I really can't afford to do that right now!

Anyone here pick it up? I'm dying to see photos once the crystal is sorted.

I got it. This will be a good test of my crystal-polishing skills, among other things. Anyone know of someone in the U.S. who could do a good job filling in the lume on the hand?

Nice! I'm excited to see how it turns out! My watchmaker in New York was fairly good at repairing missing lume, but I dunno if it'd be worth sending all the way from the west coast.

Yeah, I imagine if I found some knockoff of this I'd buy it because I've got 4 Dynamics and a few straps and bracelets. Yes you can use a adjustable case back tool but if you have a purpose made tool it's quicker.

And yeah the market for these would be very, very small...
One less available now [emoji4]
Thanks for the post.

A nice 30T2 (case 2272) at Holbens. Claims to be all original, including the dial. I'm a fan of the seller. Watches are serviced and offers terrific after sales if there is an issue.
