Asking 40k€ 🙄

I think they mistakenly added a zero

How can sellers be "trusted" and "5 star sellers" selling all kind of crap? On chrono24 that is

Look at this nice "105.0012"... and in the certificate it's a 105.003. And it contains a 861... and more "faults"

Priced at 12.000 EUR

sick sick sick

This has been polished to death. Currently on eBay buy it now for $550.

Actually likely a later caliber 1010/1012, probably a ref 166.175, so this case finish is correct.

He's pushing shit uphill if he thinks he's going to get USD$1,200 for that clunker.

But it is "rare". And it is "military". And it is a "piece of history and perfect for any collection! ", so who knows.

Not Omega but the arrogance of this seller must be shared-

Dead Link/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/163795408684

Yes, it’s a pretty Wakmann, it’s not a Breitling

Now I quote from the text below the description-
“I paid 1800 USD for it 15 years ago so its really worth over $4000. Try to find another one? I had already answered another bidders question about the crown. Based on the increase in Wakmann/Brightling in 15 years it should go over $5000, there is a LOT of interest in this watch and I know what the retail value is.”

Yeah, this guy is making me really want it

Another Not Omega. Does Movado even make a watch this expensive?? and Men’s??

But it's got a certificate of authenticity. I wonder who wrote it? A ten year old kid? Should be dated 01 April 2019.

I do like the font though, very elegant 🙄.

And in addition to the certificate, its got a "deployment clasp"... must be a rare military spec watch used in combat.
