Skeleton Rolex

[Cryten]

I've been watching these Ukrainian frankenwatch makers for several years, the auctions are always private so the casual observer can't search for previous sales or identify shill bidding.

There's a way around it though, just add them to your watch list. It takes time, but a pattern emerges. You'd also be amazed how often the exact same "rare" watches are sold (in fact, you probably wouldn't).

I suspect the shill bidders buy their own watches back a lot of the time, but when one does go to a victim they more than recoup the lost ebay fees.
