I expect we will be seeing some canceled bids. Not sure what people were thinking but I appreciate the audacity.......

 

Parts watch !

 

Hey, hey hey!
Not so harsh.

He took it to his jeweler:
"Dial is in EXCELLANT CONDITION."

You are sure?
"Sorry....I cannot post anymore pic's once bidding started."

At least day and month discs seem to be original...
and two or three of the hands.

 

Worst moon-phase disk ever?

 

I strongly believe this is a redial and the vender knows it...…. hence the out of focus pictures.

 

Oh s*%#

I just assumed the new pics made it into the listing. That’s a recipe for disaster all around. I’m sure the buyer can force a return....

 

Seller doesn't know the difference between dauphine hands and feuille hands.

 

Shocking!!!
What do they teach them in school these days?

...now for something a little different:

 

Speaking of something a little bit different;

I have absolutely no affiliation to the seller but I just thought these were pretty cool.

 

Awesome find! What was the asking price?

 

He was asking around €3,800 for the pair if I recall correctly and they sold almost immediately.

 

Not on eBay but under the hammer soon at Antiquorum. is this real or BS? Look at the fours for instance, different kind fonts sharp versus flat four. lume on hands etc. custom order https://catalog.antiquorum.swiss/en/lots/universal-ref-22289-aero-compax-lot-324-502?page=1&q=

 

It can be BS but looks nice at first glance

 

yes fully agree. but some alarm bells ringing here

 

Wary...

 

The prints are pretty badly done, not to mention what looks like a major dial scratch behind the centre chronohand.

 

That is total BS dial

 

Getting back to a private comment I made a few days ago. If you've been at this a while, the BS warnings flash red immediately. Also the source is questionable and the description is hysterical. Come to think of it, its time to rotate mine into circulation....

 

The Fat U box is a nice touch, as is the Chai pumpkin spice latte lume
