As a footnote to my previous post, I've checked the ebay status of the previous seller, betterwholesale2008 and the only feedback from a buyer states that he's a scammer now wanted by the FBI !!!.

It also seems odd that the last photo in the recent advert shows the 2 watches together on exactly the same blue cloth as the photo's from May 09 but the current seller wasn't the seller who took the pictures.

I hope that the reason the photo's are the same is a valid one and that the new buyer doesn't end up with a box bricks...

: The blue watch was on ebay last May and I nearly bought it but the
: seller then, (different one now), was a bit 'odd' in his email
: replies and I didn't go through with it. The photo's on ebay
: this time are the exact photo's used back in May 2009. I offered
: $3250 as a buy it now and he said he had someone wanting to buy
: it but they were messing him around offering $2500 then $2000
: then retracting the bids and then he said I could have it for
: $2900. I was a bit unsure of the dial so I left it. Something
: didn't seem quite right and as Robert De Nero said in Ronin,
: "If there is any doubt, there is no doubt".

: Wise words Bobby, wise words...

: As a basis to strip down for parts, Richard's right that 2 for that
: price isn't bad.
