This one got a mention in the Worst Redials thread as well.

If a good, all original Movado Cal 95 won't command this price, what makes him think this dog will?

It's not the worst redial - just a kind of a run of the mill atrocious one - enough to make this into a parts watch.

Hey! Are you trying to muscle in on my turf? 😜

No, I was trying to inspire you, to prod you into one of your famous $1 bids!

Gotcha!

I thought these were going for about $12K at the AD...

But why not start the bidding at $20K from a no-feedback seller? 😒

Sometimes people with watches in the uncommon category get a bit carried away

$1 offer sent.

If he splits the difference with me, it's probably still a bit high given the case condition.

And a one-picture listing, no less. 🙄

Okay, okay, so it's not an Omega watch listing and heck, it's not even a watch, but really this has to be the winner for 2013... $37/crown for a job lot of Zodiac crowns. Ulackafocus: you could corner the world market if you move swiftly....
