Hi guys, Am having a hard time calling on this one so putting it out to the experts here. Am currently in the market looking for a good ref. 6610 and chanced upon this listingPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network at eBay. The pictures and details look good to me: Pretty discoloration to peach/pink of the supposed Radium lume Correct 'Swiss' label at 6's bottom to indicate Radium used Correct gilt logos and chapter ring on dial Correct nice glossy dial instead of matt Correct Mercedes hands with equally discolored lume to go with it Correct clean Calibre 1030 for ref. 6010 Correct 'II.56' marked SS caseback References visible between the lugs So far just about everything points to a genuine listing. Yet something still unsettles me. Turning to the seller (as the street says, buy the seller when doing a purchase in eBay), I was rather intrigued to read about the accumulated negative feedback given to this Australia based seller for his/her smartphone listings. Digging deeper, I found this other 6610 listingPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network about 2 months back: Australia based seller as well Similar seller nicks 'deal_aussie' vs 'oz_deal' Offered 6610 looks eeriely similar Same 1956 cira reference numbers (168538 vs 168554) Feedback received marks them as smartphone dealers as well Descriptions point them out as the same operator, albeit different nicks 2 very similar watches coming from the same seller who mainly deals in smartphones and have received substantial bad reviews by buyers about fake goods, non-receipt of goods, goods were sent from China etc., this made me decide to continue my search elsewhere. Now, putting the above suspicious facts aside, the watches look perfectly fine (at least to me), and i'm still undecided if they are genuine 6610s, or very nicely done fakes altogether. Your calls please?
@souplock 3 questions for you: 1. How long have you been looking for a Ref. 6610? 2. Are located in Melbourne? 3. Have you seen the other items the eBay seller has listed?
Would not touch it with a barge pole, nothing to do with the watch but the seller sounds dodgy. The only way I would consider it is a face to face meeting.
