If you have the rest of the Rodney King tape please cue us in Otherwise all I see is a Swatch. I have been trying to track down the Swatch I had in 6th grade which was my first real watch purchased at Boston Store. So far in 2o years I have been unsuccessful It had an orange Swatch guard as well.

I've scored my deal or 50 from lot purchases but the lady Faulex at the bottom of the pile is not it (especially if the seller names it by name in the desrciption) I did score a Daniel Mink womans SS /18K watch and a womans Omega Constellation quartz with a water damaged movement and a woamsn Whittnauer some fancy Guillardo designer edition in a $10 each lot. Shoot me an offer

The bracelet in the middle of the picture or the phony Rolex?

Looks like a Citizen case. Just going by font on insert.

Not sure but the watch at 12 noon looks like a Seiko . . . . perhaps a LM or King?

Boy, you guys are good, actually seeing some real possibilities. Yes Mar, it was the Rolex knock-off...not even listed in the description. Wouldn't that be crazy, if it was actually the real deal?

Tim, I love looking at watch lots and you would not believe the percentage of them that has a partially covered fake Rolex in the bunch that is never mentioned.

I always assume that watches are strategically placed for those 'random' shots.

Absolutely 100% agree with you. I can see the seller's reply now..."how'd that little Rollie get past me!" I've seen too many of these watch lots with the innocuously placed Rolex that is never in the lot description.
"Gee, never heard of them!"

Just what I was thinking and if it turns out to be Genuine, I have to give you the Hat off for it. You never know what people will do and many times can make a mistake and another benefit's from it. If it is a Real one, and I really hope, ( I'll go to say it is a .... " Real One " 7dfe79adc2f0), for you to have in that lot. I'll say there is at least one more or a couple more not seen that's worth something under all that. (Just a hunch ) Much Aloha to you Sir.

Not sure but the watch at 12 noon looks like a Seiko . . . . perhaps a LM or King? I blew up the shot & I see a faceted crystal there ... which could indicate an Advan, VANAC (which means King Seiko grade, but in a "mod" case/dial style), or LM Special if it's a Seiko. If it's Japanese other than Seiko, it could be an Orient (a "Mexican" or similar model) or Citizen as both companies did do similar styles. But there were also Swiss watches that had similar design concepts to those I mention above (including the faceted crystals). Who knows?? And on the "Rolex" ... I suppose the quickest, easiest way to know if it's real is to open it up & see what the movement is. If it's some lower-quality Chinese thing, forget it. But, if it's got the look & feel of a hi-quality Swiss movement, you got something there!! Will be interested to hear how this lot comes out if you (Groundhog66) do get it.

those vintage swatch can be very collectible That reminds me. I still need to get a replacement black strap for my 'all black' swatch and a clear strap for the 'all clear' swatch I've had from new, back in the '80s.
