Paul is the winner - that dial is something to behold!!! I particularly like this BS line in the discription: "Also please note that watch is perfectly regulated, but movement can be disbalanced by the extreme temperatures during the flight. Sharp temperature drop during the flight can cause the oil viscosity and as a result it may be necessary to be oiled when it arrives regardless of its recent servicing."
"Disbalanced" is a term that should go in the Urban Dictionary! It will be hard to top this one!

And from a seller with nearly 400 positive feedback. How many duped buyers are in there, i wonder.

I think we saw a similar piece some months back, got it removed.
most of the 400 feedback is as a buyer and quite recent.
sold a "Patek" for 4,000.
will have to watch that guy.


a picture of this junk to remember:

I think some of the members here are a little disbalanced.

the poor soul is paying $2,030 for this POGoldS and $170 for shipping if he/she sits in Europe.

Oy.
