saw that listing, sold on March 31.

IF the watch you receive is the watch pictured, this is a case where something too good to be true
turns out to be true, make sure serial numbers on papers and watch match.

Should this be the case, this is truly a rare exception; good luck & let us know.

Thanks guys
To be honest the seller is dragging their heels on replying to my emails and the money is pending with paypal - I'm not sure what is happening with this sale
At first I thought it was a fake which is why the delay in responding and sending.. but now I feel they may feel it was sold too cheap but at £3k it was not unrealistic

Fakes don't have single date digit rotated 90 degrees.
If you receive pictured watch, it will be best buy on entire internet.

Hope that OP will receive the same watch.

well, if you hear about the "seller dragging his feet" and funds unclaimed, I_m afraid the old saying will be
proven right again, though I hope for the OP we will be pleasantly surprised.
the pictured watch is - without any doubt - authentic.

Hmmm, so seller has sold the same watch twice and is a new eBay memebr with no sales history. I would start pushing hard and if you don't get quick results escalate the issue to eBay / PayPal / credit card company (assuming that you used CC for the PayPal payment). Certainly sounds more than a little suspect.

I agree.. I'm getting that dreaded feeling I've been duped..

I'm just compiling an email to eBay so I will see what they say..

Thank you so much for your help on this

oh well .....

there should be little risk for you, and if you wanted to pay £3k - there are plenty of decent Navis around for this sum,
you might want to contact Andrew Michaels, one of the forum sponsors, and see if they have a nice preloved one ?
