My recollection is that Stew auctioned this NOS Monaco on eBay a couple of years ago:
- The auction was won by a guy in Queensland, Australia, who Stew told us intended to wear the watch, not keep it in a safe
- About a year ago, someone on eBay stole Stew's old auction photos and tried to "sell" the same watch. That "seller" had stolen someone else's eBay identity and so had a 100% record. Fortunately, that auction was canceled before someone lost their money

None of this is to say that this watch/ auction is not above board, but its certainly worth asking questions before putting forward a bid.
