    I knew that price was about $1000 or more lower than market. Time to report that.

    Interesting pocket watch with pre- and post-1970 Zenith stars on the back.

    Always had a soft spot for these manual wind chronographs.

    Near-Zenith here - looks to be in good shape but for replaced crown. !7 jewel version of El Primero.

    At the opposite end of the spectrum, this genius has polished away any vestiges of finish or case definition from this Defy, and is trying to sell the equally mutilated bracelet separately.

    Proof that shiny is not necessarily good

    Ah, the delicate touch of a bench-grinder with buffing wheels, and maybe a beer (or ten).

    I've looked at the photos closely... am I missing a platinum hallmark on this thing?

    bent second hand and mediocre redial. These never came in white, but rather only with a silver dial. Plus the ridiculous paper-clip repair. Garbage.

    Port Royal in steel with bogus box and paper sold for USD 5968 $(KGrHqFHJEwFD4QLJhBWBQ-5(+4DIQ~~60_57.JPG
    And I thought I shelled out a lot for the gold one...

    That was straight-up cray cray. Check out the interesting Polerouter he's hawking... I posted it on the UG eBay thread.

    At least you can still buy the minute recorder jumper. That is one hell of a bodge - I bet that watchmaker is proud of himself.

    Was thinking this might have been a special edition for the Vatican, given that priesthood inscription. :)

    Retirement is all the rage in that field just now. I'm sure there is a market for watches for the occasion

    I dig the Deluca's, especially the panda-negative variety. One of the brightest spots in Zenith history between since 1975. I'd like to have one some day, after I've mopped up a few more pre-Apocalypse pieces. The opening bid seems to me to be a decent price for the watch.
