I wouldn't have bid €5k without some better movements photos, though...

 

Looks like it's missing a bezel, or is that how they are?

 

Good question. I don't have a clue about these rare birds.

 

Replacement crystal maybe?

 

Attention all 35mm case lovers......here's one for you! Is a nice dial overall, but I would have done something different with those hour markers

 

That sure looks to be missing its bezel, doesn't it?

 

Can I put that Base1000 tachy on a 2915?

 

Highly questionable watch - dare I say, an outright fake. The dial looks like a fairly poor attempt and the case is incorrect - ref 530 did not have chamfered lugs and the inner caseback would have most likely been perlaged (not to mention the suspicious looking engravings). I think all of the parts except for the movement are fake.

 

What is this ? Is it a Seiko ?

 

Is it just me or is the 30 under the 6 hour marker totally wonky?

 

And likewise, compare 50 and 55...

 

Not keen on the use of both open & closed 6's - That does feel off

 

Hodinkee did a decent rundown of what's wrong with this piece. Stay away! https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/bring-a-loupe-october-14-2016

 

Some1's getting



Our world is full of dirt bags. If this Hodinkee article is correct that's a messed up thing to do to some1 & that's putting it lightly.

 

Seriously, someone is going to spend that much on an iffy looking movement like that off ebay without ever handling the watch?

Some have more money than brains!
