Well, paying with paypal, I guess it's hard to loose in this case?

Good lord, with 0 feedback and only stock pictures of the watch, no way I'd bid on it. Maybe if I paid by PayPal, I'd eventually get my money back, but would I really want to go through all of that trouble and fighting?

It would be nice to have an actual picture of the watch.

Get yourself a real watch from a trusted seller.

No - I wouldn't bid.

Reported as suspected fraud - seller likely doesn't have the watch. "end early for right price" indicates attempt to avoid final selling fee; another listing violation.

Very easy to lose...seller empties PayPal account before buyer can file claim. If he is a scammer he would have several "shell" bank accounts at zero balance with multiple PayPal accounts pointed at different ones.

Paypal

Let me tell you about paypal, I recently bought a watch off ebay, and was well and truelly scammed, I thought the same, pay by paypal and you will be safe.NOT. Because this seller sent a tracking number, which by the way was to an address in the UK other than mine, confirmed by Royal Mail, Paypal would not refund the £600 I had spent, they would not even enter into discussions about it. So it looks like as long as they send a tracking number for something to somewhere your stuffed. This is only recently so beware
