B & R Type Marine - is it real or fake?

[notanothercamera]

Okay guys, I'm going to defer to your expertise on this one. This B & R Type Marine just came up on eBay.

Is it real or a fake? Based on the condition represented in the photos, what do you think is a fair price for it?

I've contacted the seller to see if all functions properly and if it comes with box, instructions & warranty card,; but no response as yet.

As always, thanks for your responses!

Definitely looks real.
Condition: If the rest of the case looks like the back and top, I'd give it an 85, maybe 90 tops, right?
Box and papers???
Quartz watch.
What do you think it's worth??

I'm thinking 85%. Looks like soome scuffs on the bezel edge that should polish out. Case back has some minor marks.
Last one I saw on ebay was closer to 95 - 97% condition. It went for just over $900.00.

Maybe $600-700.00 for this one?

Anyone else on WUS bidding or considering bidding on the Type Marine?
Have you had any contact with the seller?

I've sent two requests to the seller thru eBay for further info and have gotten no response. Seems a bit fishy to me!

I would buy the seller as well! Look at his/her feedback and see if the majority is for High Priced items. Example if they had sold another high priced watch, etc. If most of the feedback is from selling or buying little stuff than be weary.....

Well, it went for $600, which was the high end of my thinking. Did you get it?

Sorry for the WAY LATE response. I never heard from the seller so I never bid on it.
The quest continues!!
