    What a timely thread; rolled the dice on eBay today from this picture. You can just about make out the Fab Suisse on the dial. Omega Fab Suisse.jpg

    This thread will be an instant classic

    Here is an exquisite example of a vintage Zodiac Seawolf. As you can see the case is unpolished, and the dial has a great patina.

    and this
    Constellation 505 1.JPG
    turned out to be this:

    Both for well under the true value. Let's not be too down on bad photographs!

    Hahaha. It's 2020 and people still own potato cameras. But then again, my 3-year old back-then-$1000 phone can't do close up's as well (for anyone wondering, yes it's an iPhone).

    I guess, we shouldn't judge harshly. My theory:

    1) People either have mediocre phone cameras or a lack of self-awareness how something is viewed by others.
    2) People don't actually care or are too lazy setting up a nice place to photograph something.
    3) People don't want to disclose certain details about the watch.

    All of them go hand in hand.
