looks correct, but pricing is probably the most lunatic ever, optimistic would fail to describe it,
even TheSage would blush.

bridge engraving is a bit different from what I would expect, but we seem to
get a different bridge marking (or non-marking) on every Datora we see ....

I've also never seen one before, so I am surprised at the comment from WatchFred.

can you explain what is surprising ?

I say it does look correct (and I have seen others) ?
Are you referring to my comments about pricing ?

Thank you, that's great, please show me where you've seen others, for I would absolutely buy one. I thought the price was ok for such a rarity.

Because I asked here and you told me, the price should be much to hight and you have seen others, may be much cheaper. Please help me and show me the others.

this getting slightly strange.
the market, in this case: ebay
the merchandise: see above

merchandise is offered in the market, customers who think the price is reasonable,
or "ok", as you state, will buy at the BIN !

I am referring to past sales, of course, not current listings, to evaluate market valuations,
asking prices and selling prices are often quite far apart.

this watch viewtopic.php?f=11&t=37774&hilit=datora sold for a fraction of the asking price of the one you inquired about.

I've been looking on eBay 15 years for this watch, to no avail.

Please, please help me and tell me where you saw, the others for a better price . :roll:

plus the seller has ZERO feedback as a seller... With prices like this...HARDLY a surprise! I would be VERY leery dealing with that seller

Doesn't buy it now at EUR 49000 convert to $62494.00 That seems super high for a watch that could be questionable.I agree with you Fred the price is lunatic.

I know that the price is high but I'm holding a watch that many students admire and I bought when I did not even know that there a lot and I like to sell it only deals with a yielder. Nice to' met you

this turns out to be one of the more counterproductive threads we had in the vintage forum ....
