This would be better in the "Watch out" Section.
But if you read the description the Seller states it has many "added" parts. |

I was thinking the same thing. I don't think anything other than 100% genuine is permitted on eBay.

Items are supposed to be 100% authentic but many items slip through. At least this seller was honest. Most of the bone heads on there try to sell there fakes as genuine. |

It looks like the seller disclosures all the replaced / not original parts. IMHO, it's very hard to buy vintage watches. Have you herd about Bob Maron?? The famous watch dealer. After "investing" a huge ammonite of money in watches, John Mayer has filled a lawsuit against him cause. Reason: some watches have replaced / not original parts.
