Was suspicious ... But at least he didn't call it a Steve McQueen snowflake. So all is well.

I think the OP deserves an apology.

I for one am glad this community looks after its own and raises questions when they suspect there may be issues with a potential sale. Thanks for having Dan's back Vincent65.

I also hope Wilddyan can see this for what it was and not as an insult to his integrity. Should he continue to positively contribute to this community, he'll surely be extended the same courtesy someday. :)

Absolutely, and thank you. I was concerned that someone else was using Dan's photos, so I of course checked the sales listings first, and when I raised the fact that I knew the watch, the photos and the owner, it was first ignored and then met with a challenging tone. Not exactly conducive to receiving more helpful comments about watches which a new member is requesting in multiple threads.

Anyway, no harm done and good luck to the OP finding "a nice beaten up but still good condition Snowflake"

The real story hear is TRF is a community that watches out for each other. Can't tell you what it meant to me to wake up to a PM from Vincent65 making sure I [or anyone else] wasn't being taken. That kind of support and due diligence from friends across the globe is truly heartwarming.
I'm honored, blessed, and humbled to have such a great [earth sized] community watching my back.
