You forgot to mention that he only has (7) feedback for sold items all under $1.00. Not good

Plus with a 25k+ watch you would have the papers + box. And he doesn't! Something smells really fishy about this!

Paperclips and Recipes - how could you go wrong?
It's also a Private Listing - 16 hidden eBay ID's supposedly bidding.
I can't see anything clearly wrong in the pics but the chance of getting it are nil methinks.

Even better: one of the recipe purchasers gave him negative feedback!

So what are we supposed to believe is the story with the seller? Carrot cake baker who used a couple of paper clips to hold the recipes together and his "$20,000 watch" to time the oven? But now he's getting out of the business, so he's selling it all?

OMG!! Someone won this pos and made the seller 20k richer. Buyer is in for a huge surprise. I'm gonna check his feedback in a week or so to see what it says.
