Another Ebay Yachty

No feedback seller. I live an hour away so I asked if we could meet at an AD. No response yet. Is the color of the dial off a little?

Looks like the seller has used pics from at least two different watches. I would say proceed with extreme caution on this one.

yes I would be interested in hearing if he will meet you.
it would appear at first glance that all of the pictures he took look like crap so he used a couple of "other" photos,which I guess is understandable,but please be careful..

...pic's of at least 2 DIFFERENT watches. (Probably stock photos and a few pic's of the actual watch??)

...notice, the 3 DIFFERENT dates on the watch pic's: ie., 5th, 30th, and 31st. HIGHLY UNLIKELY that the seller took the pic's over a 25/26 day period.

...could be a SCAM.

I think he acquired a box set for a Submariner and tried to make his sale look real with the box and papers. There is an anchor in the pictures which makes the whole sale null and void. It's a scam folks.

Good eye Terry. Our glasses are helpful at times.

Seller emailed back. He is willing to meet in person but not at an AD
Auction has been pulled. What a deal I missed out on
