Just make sure it is authentic and all checks out!

F series? Has it ever been serviced? If not that is probably 1500 or so in the near future.

Wise words. When it's too good to be true it usually bites you in the ASS.

Also good call on the gear feel... Or lack there of. When I wind it there is no mechanical feel like my other watches. Serial on the back confirms F model as well.

I will be offering him under the 8k

Based on who he bought it from, I think if the books and certs showing model number match up with the black themes in disguise like I think this likely is, it is safe to buy (after checking inside too of course) . This is not being purchased blind or online so there is some avoided risk there.

Will see how it goes. He may not bite at around 6500-7k which is what I'm prepared to pay. If n pretty, no big deal. I'll move on.

Sorry wanted to also clarify , he wasn't asking 8k. . I offered just over $8k (in cad $ equivalent) only having seen a mediocre quality picture with the condition of seeing the watch in person first as well as thinking it was a rubberclad. he accepted my offer, but after seeing the watch and realizing all these issues with it, I'm not willing to pay that price.

As I said, the dial and bezel look real but it could still be a fake movement and watch with DD module ie a Franken. Check all the paperwork at the very least.

Hey all,

After thinking about it some more, I decided to pass on this watch. Even though the price I could have had it for was around $7500 USD, thats $7500 USD that can go towards something I really want.

Thanks everyone for their feedback!

Oh, definitely. But from a quick look at the pic, I can't see anything that would jump at me.

If you did not "really want it" I think you made a wise choice.
