This watch which has been on ebay for eternity always seems to spark my interest. Has it been discussed here?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1940s-Universal-Geneve-Triple-Calendar-Moon-PhaseVintage-Watch-Nice/332052447015?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Despite the price what is keeping people away. I can't see 'SWISS' on the dial but it all looks ok?

I think because the seller photos has managed to make the watch look really ugly. Maybe a bit better in the metal? Looks correct to me, yet another example with the red hand on the date dial. I wouldn't pay even half the asking myself.

This Clapton tricompax sold for 9500 Euro + premium today. Did anyone get it?

seller added photos of watch in the metal, and now just ended the listing. Bummer. Wonder if someone here got it and how much they paid.....
4000€, not me 😉

Yes, I bought this one. Apologies for the slightly underhand eBay antics.

I'd been on the look out for one for a while. I'd seen a few additional pictures that were not on eBay (although still not the hi-res pictures one would want) and the seller also agreed to accept PayPal so it seemed a less risky transaction.

I've probably now cursed the transaction but if it does turn up, I'll share some pictures.

Congrats. I was about to conclude a deal with the seller for slightly less. The watch seems lovely! Can't wait to see pics 😀

Not your cup of tea?
Definitely not. Looks like it has orange mold on it.

LOL. As much as I love it, that is true.
