That idiot lives in Traverse City, Michigan which is 1.5 hours away from me. It looks fake as all get out. The band looks crummy for just being serviced.

He also sold an Ebel that he claimed was worth $1,900 on March 8th. The pictures were equally as crummy and someone bought it for $349.00. I can't believe it went so low if it was worth $1,900 unless it was fake. I would wonder if he is a thief and steals the items and sells them.

why would someone even post pictures like that..it is insulting to buyers-unless they are trying to hide something and are playing off of the greed in people that makes them bid anyway thinking they will get a good deal.

I wrote to him implying that it was difficult to see what he was selling due to the lousy pictures and here is his reply

Quote - hello,I JUST SENT YOUR E MAIL TO E BAY SECURITY,I OWN A LARGE JEWERLY STORE IN T.C. GOOD LUCK, - End of Quote

I wrote back and asked him which one, as one would think that he'd take better pictures. I advised him I'd be reporting his watch as well. For owning a large jewelry store one would think he'd know how to spell jewelry.

Please report this large jewelery store owner.

If they continue to pollute E-bay with crap like this it won't even be safe to sell anything anymore. I was also surprised for an owner of a large jewelery store that he has only sold one previous watch. Must be wildly successful.

It looks like this jerk cleaned up some of his pictures. At least he removed the one where it showed the obvious band disrepair. I still think it looks bad and should be reported. It is bid up to $235.00 now.

His feedback as a buyer is interesting. He now owns more cheap $30 - $40 Gruen watches than anyone else on the planet.
