    Rolex rarity on auction - Ebay

    I highlighted this watch a while ago - it's very rare.
    Mick English (seller) is a top bloke - and i thought i'd let you loaded collectors have a look.
    Rare to see wathces with no reserve of this quality etc.

    I know he was looking at sending it to bonhams.
    Has to be a genuine investment piece.

    The seller is indeed a top bloke, bought from him before. I think he even drops by her for the odd thread... ;-)
    I'm not as think as you drunk I am.

    The enamel dial Rolex Oyster Scientific watches are a lovely little watch, produced in very small numbers.

    My 18ct gold version is only twenty-or-so case numbers away from the watch Michael is selling on eBay...

    This (or an identical) watch was on the bay about a month ago - it was discussed over on WUS...

    Sure it was this exact one?

    Got a link to the WUS thread? My watch (pictured) has been owned by me for a few years, and did not come from eBay...

    Sold for £2,050 - surely cheap enough for something so rare?

    £2050 for a watch of that rarity and condition was a steal! :shock:

    Worth only what someone is prepared to pay for it and this week £2050 was its value.

    However I agree - seems good value to me. :D
