Love the eBay commission links on the "unrealistic price expectations" thread -- good luck! (seriously)

A photo might be a good idea.

Was producing the image so it was simple to look all together. Sorry, 4 min late

I love my Eternas, and the Kontiki Super 130 FTP is a rare bird indeed, but $10k? The description is priceless, though.

Maybe that’s Philips’ ebay account
Nah, if it was Philips, there would be another zero. 😲

So it’s not uncommon to see a Seamaster De Ville with a bent or even missing lug, they’re relatively thin and if abused these things happen to them. I’ve not seen one with more than one missing before though because once one fails you don’t keep wearing or messing with it for more to fall off.

That is until now, with the Seamaster De Ville… undersized pointless pocket watch? Like a crab that’s popped it’s legs off it’s essentially worthless now except as a donor but the owner still wants $500

"Only flaw is the band connections are missing but is an easy fix". 🤦
