Hi there,

I'm close to pulling the trigger on this piece, have matched the movement to ones i can find on google and it seems to check out. Serial number also seems to check out with the movement.

Looking forward to your expert views 😀 Is this a good watch for US$999

Appreciate all your time !

Won’t go into details but to be honest this is a dog, an ugly one. For that price you can do way better. Have a look at the sales forum on here...

heavy polishing, heavy rotor wear, heavy washing of the dial, screw heads mangled.

Tell us what you see and what you like about it so we can be more help.😀

The screw-heads can get mangled when you use the wrong watch hatchet during service

Slam, Bam, thank you ma'am and out the door.



Your next request may come at a high cost(pure crickets) if you can't be bothered to introduce yourself and contribute to the hobby via this Forum a smidgen.

This forum offers help and a shoulder to cry on/pedestal to shout glee from, but is not an appraisal vehicle.



Others may have another opinion.

Thought it was a polite request for advice. I’m a relative newcomer and am constantly amazed at the level of friendly (mostly) expertise that is shared - in support of the common passion we share. I’d hate to see an occasional visitor be afraid to ask for help/advice. N
