The ad says: This watch was tested for seven days on my automatic final Test positional testing machine, and it ran perfectly.
Yeah I was trying to figure out what an automatic final test positional testing machine could possibly refer to

In any case, I seem to recall that you were after a pristine example? This one would have been an automatic pass given the ding on the bottom left lug.
I don't believe I've used the word pristine but yeah I'm looking for a relatively decent example. But as a novice I'm still learning what that even means. I don't think that ding bothers me too much but what do you make of the overall condition on this example? To me I would have thought the shininess on the brushing on the side of the lugs might indicate polishing but that could also be an effect of the bright lighting.

Wow, outbid in the last 10 seconds... Maybe for the best though, as @hant26 has pointed out the incorrect or broken second hand.
Almost all watches are won on a sniper in the last 3 seconds, at least in this price range. Quite a few wanting a watch like this. There will be more though!

As always, thank you to dsio and all who contribute! Without you I'd have fewer watches, and more money!

That’s a good deal at that price IMO.
How difficult or expensive do you think it'd be to source a correct second hand?
