I read a lot of mysteries, I work a lot of puzzles, and I try to employ logic & critical thinking.
It is not logical for a new seller to register on Wednesday, and offer seven Rolexes on Thursday, all with photos from different sources.
It is even less logical to bid on a $7,000 watch on offer for $1,200 from a seller who registered yesterday, but people like a bargain, and they like to believe they're clever . . .
It is also not logical for a seller of buttons and bows to go dormant for a year or more, and then come back with three desirable Rolexes, all with photos from different sources.
It takes one set of skills to see a flaw in the shape of an hour marker on a Submariner, and it takes another to sense there's something wrong with a new Daytona for $1700, with no reserve, and a user with a history of selling nothing other than vintage corkscrews.
