    Ha! That’s hilarious. The only part of that watch that might be worth anything is the crown and gear on the stem if it still works.
    Cheers..

    That is a serious mess. I dont normally agree with landfill, but it's the only sensible destiny for certain items!

    Clearly an LE of one, must be worth much ten times that price.

    I feel 130 quid may be a trifle optimistic...

    When I first started getting interested in wristwatches beyond mere timepieces, I recall browsing ebay for vintage pieces, and again-and-again seeing tat like that and thinking "that looks like it was dug out of some poor bastard's coffin" - eventually I realised most of them were in India and the far east, and actually probably had been...

    There will be some mug, put the word vintage or rare when selling and people common sense goes out the window, some may say vintage, I say old tat. Anyone fancy a pair of vintage underpants, they are pretty rare lol?
