Hi guys, what would you consider as a reasonable deal price for this on Bulangs?

Or another piece on Ebay...

If the movement have been replaced with a automatic movement instead?

Pretty, but I think there's an extra zero that's a typo.

At that price, I think you should re-read the ad to see if it is made of palladium. I was expecting to see that it was made out of Palladium! Maybe I missed it in the advertisement.

Don't buy one that has the movement swapped for an auto, the whole charm behind these things is the complete combo of movement and dial/hand details. Otherwise you might as well buy any other watch that doesn't say "electric" on the dial.

And the price is a lot. There's another one for sale in the same range from someone else, but it's the much rarer skeleton dial. Have some patience and a good one will show up at a more reasonable price. 👍

B&S deletes prices once the item is sold, so I had to use an archive/cache service to view the original listing and… 😲

IF you find someone to do it (which I doubt), be prepared to spend a king’s ransom to do the swap. Let us know if you find someone to do it!
