It's the second time around for this one. The bracelet is incomplete, short on both sides and as for the watch, well that's definitely a pass from me.
Really? The description says "
* Since this product is not currently operating, it is listed as a junk product.
Since the crown will also come off, the time cannot be adjusted."

I'm surprised no one has posted this, which is a wonderful thing regardless of hands and spotting.

The minute track doesn’t line up with the edge of the outer ring near the 6 O’Clock - leads me to think that it’s a redial.

They weren't always perfect. Looks fine to me.

Without movement and inside case back photos I wouldn't touch this one.

I have no particular interest in this watch, I don't know the seller and I'm not going to bid on it. I'll just make a few points. The seller says it's running, so we know there is a functional movement inside. From his items past and present and his feedback he appears to sell clothes and bits and bobs and never to have sold a watch before. It's a straightforward if brief description with no questionable "family watch" story or other bullshit. Unless he's very crafty in his description, he doesn't know a lot about watches. My guess is he's bought it at auction, an antique fair, from a house clearance dealer or similar.

Of course it is possible that someone's palmed him off with a dud, but for me it rings true. I see the risk as low and would go for it if I wanted one and was able to replace the hands. I have bought several watches without movement photos and they all worked out well. But there is always an element of risk and people will weigh it up differently.

Could someone explain me the issue with the hands ?

I was offered this watch (2520-2577), same hands for me with a different dial style of course.

Or did i missed something ?

Sorry for the bad seller picture.
