Here's an interesting one. It's original but there are a few issues. I emailed him already about the crown being the wrong size and not fitting correctly. Also, check out the movement. Proper Venus 178 movement but minus the movement retaining screws (somebody installed a spacer ring). makes me wonder what else wasn't done properly and definitely lowers the value to me. Ok, not a deal breaker for sure but something else to be dealt with at some point. First thing I'd check would be to make sure the watch is a true 24 hour watch and one that's not had a substitute 12 hour movement installed. See what I mean? Now I'm suspicious. :roll:

I'm becoming more fussy - there's enough here to frighten me off, especially at the current price point of almost $2,000.
