its been discussed before
I believe Fred spotted the Elgin import code on the movement
and also the 0.750 looks engraved, not stamped , which is strange

the seller also states in the auction the dial has been redone ?, but there might be a lot more 'redone' on this watch

discussed in depth here:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=36757&p=271163&hilit=datora#p271163

Price would maybe be slightly optimistic but not unrealistic, were it authentic and original.

there is a MUCH nicer Datora listed on the bay, if you are truly interested.
