Watch out for this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... SS:US:1123 As I'm quite sure that it's a watch I bought about a year ago, try to compare with the below picture of my watch, and let me know if you agree. I'm on vacation, and I don't have access to the serial number of my watch. Kurt B http://www.kurt-b.com

My interpretation is that he stored the pictures back then, and now use them for a fradulent auction. I'm on an iPad in the northern part of the Garda Lake, and with a bad internet connection, so I urge somebody to take a deeper look into it, and post his comment here. Kurt B http://www.kurt-b.com |

Thanks for the heads up Kurt, had spotted that one and posted it here http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=201126062281, didn't know it was a fake ad. Wonder what watch he is planning to ship to the winner:) |

He shows the serial number. Is it the same? Nevermind. Just saw Kurt can't check. If I had a 54 Navi I'd have the serial number memorized.

Kurt B http://www.kurt-b.com Kurt, I agree, this is 100% the same watch, no doubt about it. Tried to contact seller. Not possible, 'the bay' doesn't switch from 'continue' to the text field, .... as most probably arranged by the seller. Long time ago we had the possibility to warn bidders when there was something doubtful in an auction. Now 'the bay' cancelled these "detrimental" possibilities. Enjoy your time at Lake Garda. Regards also to the rest of the bunch. Chris |

Fred, this is again one of the mysteries of the net. Tried again, same result as y'day: "We're sorry we couldn't find an answer for you. Unfortunately, this seller is not able to respond to your question. We suggest reviewing the item again to see if your answer is in the seller's listing." You seem to have better connections to the one above us. Servus Chris |

Reported as suspected fraud, really wish that eBay would allow a description for that category. |

I sent him two messages with no response before I retracted my bid. One of the messages had a link to this thread so it's not like he doesn't know what's going on. |
