A lot of things going on with this one. Dial, hands, bezel, case back. What does everyone think.

I hear the sound of wallets opening, the sound of keyboards clicking "Would you consider ending this auction early?"..............

No movement shot or mention of a serial, plus it's clearly had some work done.

I don't have MWO with me so this isn't gospel but are we looking at a later 2915 dial, with non matching hands and the later DoN. So unless I'm mistaken, and I could well be, the bezel and dial don't go together and the hands stick out like a sore thumb.

A serial and case ref would go along way here.

Good luck to the buyer finding someone "to clean it/work on it due to it's (sic) complexity, age and lack of parts."🙁

Seller seems to get a lot of "gifts from my father" that aren't working.

Don't always blame the uncle.

Perhaps the lack of parts was revealed when they took the back off, rather than the lack of parts availability.

That was my read as well.

Not sold. Seller realized he had something special and pulled it.
