This popped up on my feed as I follow the seller because he's been the only seller to post more than one of the Hamilton I'm looking for.

Anyway, I thought the membership here would have some fun with this one. Exactly $28k, as suggested in the June Speedmaster 101 price chart for 105.002-62s. eBay authentication to boot 🙄



To my (very non expert) eyes, the bezel is in nice condition, the lume seems pretty attractive, and the case looks honest. Can't wait to here what y'all think.

Looks very appealing at first glance, but one of the experts will need to say whether all the parts are correct, including the hands (I always have a hard time seeing the "curvature"). As an aside, regarding the price chart, IIRC it doesn't include bracelets, and this bracelet and end-links (assuming they are legit) add significant value. An authentic pair of #6 end-links has a value well into 4-figures I believe.

Lume looks like it has some dirty patches, and that chrono hand bugs me as it looks repainted (thick globular paint with rounded corners in the spear) and relumed (I may be wrong). Not so sure of honesty of the case. These pictures certainly do not highlight the assets of the watch (ie dial cleanliness/attraction and lume attraction). It’s hard to say how nice it is but I would venture a guess that it is better in hand, and at that price (minus eBay fees) presents for a better 105.002 then the last one or two that sold here. I would not rate it ‘very good’ ... it’s closer to ‘good’ (which is where one gets by subtracting bracelet/ELs and eBay/PayPal/etc fees). All my humble 2c opinion naturally.
