It can't be a kit, he says it's from his personal collection !!!

Glad to see he's keeping the price modest by excluding the bracelet though...

That's amazingly ballzy at $10K for a watch that's clearly not original vintage, but rather made of obvious replacement parts.

I think there's a message in this: 'we' - the folks on this forum - have varying degrees of knowledge and vast amount of passion. But the general public out there just want to buy a watch, maybe even a cool watch, no knowledge or expertise needed. If not, would the multi-coloured dials of India and Orange County or the fantasy dials of the Ukraine continue to sell? I think most of us here can smell a dog, but perhaps 'outsiders' can't. Caveat emptor, I'm afraid.

Well said!

That's classic-watch-collector again. He hasn't got a single watch that isn't priced one order of magnitude beyond reasonable.
That guy is reallly insane
