Suspicious ebay listing
Hi Guys,
This is my first WatchOut bad ebay listing, seems fishy, hope I am right. At the very least this is a Frankenwatch. The funny stuff: "from my father's estate." "This watch has a liitle story I have to say, and what it is is the original movement has been taken away due to its span. However, I had my watch maker replace it to eta movement. It is now in working order and keep great time." 22 feedback, all low cost items. The typeface on the dial looks off to me, as well. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VTG-ROLEX-DA...ht_3169wt_1402 Sorry I am not able to embed the images. |

Watch looks good to me too.
Seller says movement was replaced by ETA one. Must bid accordingly! |

Strange story. Dial is strange though. Feeling: 50-50 fake-real
