I was watch this piece on eBay which I thought was a re-dial and it sold for $2550 US and shipped from Peru. After another look today I realized I had seen the same one before on Catawiki from a seller in Turkey. Sure enough it’s the same one.

same watch on Catawiki

I'm probably wrong but isn’t that the wrong font/script for the word automatic?

a nice write up here on the forum for this watch

Was going through all the pics on my phone and found this. I guess I was wrong about the script

there was one that sold for around $800, maybe a month or two ago. I wasn’t sure about something and while I was looking it up it sold. My mistake. Should have bought and asked questions later

yeah it was on eBay. I must of found it just after it listed. I can’t remember what it was but I was unsure about something. So I was looking up the watch and within 30 min it was gone. Still kicking myself

It was a mark 1, manual winding 133.8 and smooth bezel. Dial was reprinted but the watch and the price were fantastic. Feedback was only 5 or 6 (now 11). When I see very low price with very low feedback I also think it is a scam.

I would have thought between 5k and 7k in euro's.
