This one has been listed so many times on the bay, I gotta get some opinions. It's been listed for $790 OBO, but never sells. Is it special, what's it actually worth?  ,9F5n(BRjn-4IiKg~~60_57.JPG) Says it's just been serviced, but the movement looks pretty ratty to me. !~~60_57.JPG) |

Nothing special. If it were pristine, maybe. Presmatics are nice watches, and I suppose would be classified as a "higher mid-grade" Seiko.
Seller's either nuts or just trolling for a sucker. With the corrosion issues it has, maybe $100 on a good day?

With the corrosion issues it has, maybe $100 on a good day? They definitely feel it is something spacial I guess, the heading is... VIETNAM WAR, RAREST,1968 SEIKO PRESMATIC(5106), 33 RUBIS, AUTO,ALL SS, SERVICED! |

I would probably run away from that watch at that price.  |

Issue is the condition. It is anything but 'serviced', so now I don't trust a word the seller writes in the entire description.
Look at all that black crud on the Friday day wheel. Tells me there's a whole lotta bad going on inside that one.
$75. top top top price I'd go - hey that's under 10% of the BIN price !
