First watch has a poor quality redial and the lume appears to be applied by a five-year-old. It's hard to tell what's going on with the second one as the photos are blurred. I generally pass if the seller can't provide sharp and detailed pictures. Also, in general, black dials rarely survive in goo condition over the years, so this is also probably a redial. I'd pass on both and look at the private sales section of OF. There are some very nice watches there from fellow members for the same price range. I'd much rather buy from here if you can find something you like. eBay is just such a minefield these days! Scott
Both bad. First one is a exceptionally poor relume. Second looks to be redialled, heavily polished, and will be really small (30mm I imagine, which is not a problem, but not 'modern'). Have a look on here in the for sale section.
