    My asking price is $1,800.
    The watch has been completely overhauled and does keep time. Take into consideration that vintage Seiko Divers now sell for well over $1,500 and Rolex Subs for well over $15,000, the Seamaster is an absolute bargain

    Love the patina on that case. Obviously a well loved watch.

    I'm thinking this is a 3000 to 4000 USD watch depending upon one's appetite and certainly not a "pre-Sherpa:"

    Ha! I was going to post that one too. I loved the comment about old watchmakers fumbling around with watches in their garages :unsure:

    Are some of these things money laundering operations? Taking dirty money and making it appear "clean" by buying a hugely overpriced luxury item on the bay? Or are the sellers simply delusional?
