    So I may have accidentally made an offer on a watch figuring that I would get a counter offer to see how low a seller would go, but he accepted it basically in an instant.

    http://bit.ly/19SYR5P

    As part of the offer I said they could keep the gaudy monstrosity attached to the watch, and I know it has a big gouge in the back, but my question is, what's this watch worth? Just wanna know if I got had.

    Well the value is subjective. To me if I wanted it, which I don't, $350-400. Especially if it is only 32mm (it is probably a little bigger), as described.
    To others, perhaps $500.

    Very "unique" bracelet.....

    I agree with Steve's evaluation.

    If it makes you feel any better, this happened to me twice yesterday. :unsure: The watch itself doesn't look too bad though!

    Me too - I offered what I thought was sure to be a rejected amount for a couple of accessories from the same seller only to see it in my "Purchases" section because the seller accepted.

    There are a number of southwest cowboys in snakeskin boots that probably thought the value was in the bracelet!
    Personally, I think that gaudy monstrosity would have melted quite nicely.
    Good luck with the watch.

    Put an Invicta on that bracelet and pop it back on the bay with a BIN for what you paid, I'm sure it'll get snapped up by one of those guys UB mentioned :D

    You can always ask the seller to cancel the deal.
