Had to look at this one. When I clicked “more about items”, it gave details for a vintage IWC… the mystery deepens…

Yeah, the descriptions on yahoo.japan auctions are iffy at best and mostly copy pasta. Not to say eBay is the pinnacle of item description quality. If google translate cant give me much confidence, I adjust my interest and top dollar accordingly off the pictures alone.

True, but the ones in your story are prime and don't look like they were used to fend off an alligator attack.

The case is in very nice condition, unpolished with some minor marks, the dial is in very nice condition, the bracelet is quite good, the crown is original. The only issues are the hands which should be stick hands and a crystal, after that it will be a very nice watch

This Zenith A386 also looked rough as hell when I bought it, cracked and yellowed crystal and lots of grime. I bought to cheap thanks to that, here’s how it looks now.

I couldn't imagine throwing $1500 at it to bring it up to that A386

Not sure where you’re getting the $1500 from, a crystal and hands are cheap, then you just service and wear it. Are you thinking it needs to be sent to Omega in Bienne for a restoration from them? Even the Zenith was only about $800 to service and sort out and it had a rare crystal to acquire, not a cheap one like this De Ville.

Cracked crystal, but I actually think this one will clean up extremely well. Excellent case and nice dial with sharp edges all around and a clear medallion

Unfortunately it isn’t. It takes me to this



When I quote your post, this is what your link looks like. I have highlighted the relevant portion I want to show. Because if you look at the eBay screenshot, you’ll see those are the key words it puts in the search bar

That is incredibly strange, Ok, what about this one:

That one works for me and I’m taken to Alex’s eBay listing.

Ok that will stop me going mad, at least now I know what to use for now until we fix it 😀
