...mmmmm...watch looks good to ME...BUT, look at this...

"Cashiers Check, Bank Transfer, or Personal Check Prefered. I will accept deposit via Paypal. Paypal can be used if you have good feedback and a 5% Paypal fee will be added to the final cost of the item. If Paypal holds funds (PAYPALS NEW POLICY) for any reason your payment will be refunded and I will asked to be paid via Bank Transfer, Personal Check, or Cashiers Check."

I agree with Stan.... the watch appears to be real.

But nice catch anyway Billy.

Seller is clearly not following eBay rules.

Thanks for the comments - I thought that the crown on the dial looked a bit squashed and that the thumb recess looked too big, but on second look through I see what ya'll mean.

Read the sellers response to buyer that tried to pay him in peso's. It's classic.

It's almost too bad the listing wasn't up over the first week of Jan. I'd have taken him up on his offer to see the watch in person. I was visiting family about a 30 min drive from Lockport, IL
