Agree about the seller. Too low a count on transactions, and I don't see any large items in there...

I hate ebay. Pics mean nothing. Price is market, nothing special.

By the way it's not two words -- it's DAYTONA as in Daytona, FL Speedway

Hi
Yes the wath is real. I would ask him a question and phone number, Then you could look up the phone number to get the adress. The seller is in good standing because he does have the $2000 Protection with Paypal.

This is BAD advice.
The PICS appear real, that means nothing. The PayPal protection also means NOTHING.
Be sure to examine this transaction very closely. I truly wish you luck, but be careful.

I purchased a Panerai 233 (real pictures) from an eBay power seller with 100% feedback, "located in S. Cal." I got a POS TAG knock-off from Malaysia, and I giant F-you from PayPal when I tried to recoup my $11,400.

Which means you might only lose $9k...superb Paypal can suck it.

Yes, I do admit that its a risk, but the best way to do it is to use paypal and pay with your credit card, like that if theres any problem, you can always do a claim on your Credit card and wont be out. Preferably would be to buy one from someone in your area where you could actually see the watch.

Also what I meant about the $2000 protection coverage was not to say that you would recup the 2k but to say that Coverage starts at $200 and more you deal on ebay and have good standing then it goes up. I sell on Ebay so know the way it works

I have bought my AK and Date from ebay and turned out to be great. But that was only 2k worth each, this is 10k. I dont know if I can do it again...its just not worth the risk. I would only do it if you can do a face to face.

You should email the seller and have him send you Pic of the warranty card as well as the inside of the dial where you could see the serial that matches.

I would not mess with a big ticket watch item on ebay unless everything unless the seller has a history of this.

The price is ok. I have seen BNIB SS Daytonas list for low $11,000s, but not an M serial.
