it is an auction, we don’t know where it will end.
low feedback seller, an origin country that is known for scam attempts.
looking at seller’s feedback, w/ the same watch sold twice in two days.....
reason enough to be cautious

Plus, he's bumping his own auction to get the price higher. Typical rookie or scammer errors.
