"it features a after market* diamond bezel"

Nice photo/scan of an appraisal...but gee, where's the watch??

Oh WAIT! Maybe the photos of the watch are in the same place as his feedback - ZERO LAND!!



Link to the scan of the appraisal of the watch:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Ladies-Stainless...item35a84eee51

This either pure laziness or a scam/fraud/holdup. I've written asking for photos of the watch (silly me, I know) and will report what I receive or hear back.

On the fish: YES I am adamant about catch and release. I have some pretty stringent standards especially for speckled trout and flounder. In the case of this big redfish, he went straight back to the bay. He was a bruiser! I bet it took me (5'4", 106#) 30 minutes to haul him in on a little treble hook. He was glad to get back to Charlie Tuna Land! I am particularly careful with speckled trout which by comparison are fragile. If they're over 20", it's minimal handling, hook out, photo, back to the water. If they are going to die, however, they go into the box.

As for the watch: I would love it if it were a legit deal. A poor listing of a good item is one thing; a good listing of a fraudulent item is quite another.

Except for the feedback, everything looks legit. The original bezel looks to be shown in the picture as well. I didn't see if that was also included in the description. If I was in the market I would consider taking the chance.

X2, Have to admit this looks ok to me, all the right info and the watch looks right too.
