Yes, I've seen a few on the bay, usually they state what is what, here I wonder if this one is trying to profit by claiming ignorance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 1,837 Posted October 11, 2019 I'd treat them as all replica except dials and ETA movements, without confirmation of individual parts I think thats the best/safest way, if any endlinks/bracelets or cases were gen thats just a bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,658 Posted October 11, 2019 Yes, it’s the disclaimer bit that stinks, the description starts off well implying everything is legit apart from say a few bits and bobs from cousinsUK and the like, but then a great big fuck you in the disclaimer. 3 reps with gen ETA old crappy movements and some wanky DirtyGate bracelets... nah sorry, I won’t be bidding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
