I'm very tempted by this, but would be grateful for any observations before I take the plunge.

Hi, generally speaking posting links to live auctions is not a good idea as others may be bidding on the item etc. For this example, normally that watch has fixed bars. So either the top is from an australian model or the lugs have been drilled out.

Sorry Zaf - I will not do so in future.
Is it OK to post pics from a similar source?
Thanks for the information. Sounds like an unhappy marriage. :-(

Yes, ideally, post the photos of the item, without revealing that it is a live auction. I think the watch is OK, just have to discount it accordingly, since technically, it should have fixed bars.

Thanks again Zaf. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me.
Would it be cheeky to ask what a fair value would be this?
