Sorry to just drop this in like this but I had some trouble adding pics.

I was looking for help. Is this a good deal ,a fake or what ever. I was going to make an addition to my watch collection.
I have a Sub no date Rolex and thought a Brietling might be a good next watch, then I saw this old timer I like it but don't know much about it. Could you help. I saw one listed for $2500 but what does that mean. There were two others that sold around 400 usd. What do you think?
Thank you

Newbe

Bad fake.

I'll move this to the vintage section and a little bit of time there will educate you a lot. Rule of thumb, avoid anything from South America!

Probably best in the vintage section this one mate.
Perhaps a friendly mod will be around shortly to move it for you...

Well it seems someone paid $710 for the arts and craft watch. I reported the fake but they never pulled it. Maybe i never gave them enough time to do anything, but it still leaves an uneasy feeling :? I am glad it was not me. So again thanks :mrgreen:
