: watch) and I'd appreciate a more 'expert' point of view...
: Please reply asap as the 'auction' is ending in a couple of hours!

May I point out this is no auction? It is a "Buy It Now" listing.
Check completed (and sold) listings on Ebay for comparable watches, which is a far better guide than any opinion.
The BIN listing is likely to expire and be re-listed, in any case. I would advise patience and perhaps the new listing will be 1) a true auction or 2) a Best Offer listing, which will allow you a chance to negotiate the price.
My view of BIN listings are that they are simply a another sales venue for the listing retailer, and I generally ignore them because they are, by definition, not at a low price. The listing seller has priced the item at retail -- the price he feels it is fair for him and which might attract a buyer. No bargains there.
There are exceptions, of course. But generally, I pass BIN listings by.
