I am pretty sure that we even cannot place a bid.

 

aw geez

 

I googled "California View Of World" to needle you but all I got was the view from 9th avenue......

 

Hey Guys, thanks for your valuable advice! I agree that it’s an attractive watch at an attractive pricing. However, it looks like it doesn’t ship to my country either.

 

Well I can vouch for the seller. He's a great guy. I'm sure hes gonna fix the listing.

 

lol I think I might have to relist at this point? it's ending tonight but people haven't been able to bid the entire time, so I'm not sure it's worth correcting just a few hours before it ends because people might have given up already.

 

If there is a collector out there with a dial in hand that is a game changer.

 

Says it won't ship to Canada either.

 

that should be fixed now, but I'm concerned as there are only a few hours left, I think I kinda ruined the auction already.

 

I might give it a go

Edit, oops can't bid for it

 

good luck !! I would say let's do a deal off ebay to save everyone some money, but this one is an auction so I have no idea where the price will go. It's always kinda exciting to set it at .99 cents and see what happens....

 

Sure I'll drop u a pm and we can discuss

 

really? bummer, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

 

Not ebay but hodinkee:

Did anyone here grab the 14k compax pocket watch?

 

Reptilian brain briefly considered it before parsimonious brain took back the steering wheel.

 

Thought about it but held off. I only have one pocket watch and rarely use it or play with it. In fact it’s in for some $$$ repairs right now!

 

At first glance it looks good to a lot of people myself included so I asked around first. Same answers as most here gave

 

any specific reason as to why you guys held off? was it the "repaired" metal loop and the case denting that put you off?

 

Could someone shed Some light on thee originality of this Polerouter, for sale for a hefty price:

In my fairly untrained eye, two things seem off:

The crosshair cut throug lettering in a way that deharmonizes the dial.

The crown seems like a Replacement.

Thanks Guys!
