Incoming vibtage tissot 50s bumper purchase. Opinions?

Hey guys I am in the process of purchasing a vintage tissot 50s bumper automatic on eBay. Do you guys think it's a good move. The watch has no strap, but it runs. I do however plan to immediately send it for a full service when I get it. I will also post pics when I get it. So what do you guys think was it a good buy.

If you're happy with it, it's all that matters. Tissot makes some beautiful pieces in my humble opinion and that includes their vintage watches. Sending it for a service is a good idea unless the ad states that one has been made recently.

Would you have pictures?

I have actually been trying to fiddle with my camera to figure out how to upload them. I mainly bought the watch because of the bumper movement and the simple dial.
