This one has an STP 1-11, full lume dial, cool rectangle/flieger hybrid styling, and is being offered at <b>$250</b>. I dunno what they asked for it originally, but that's a pretty insane price.

I couldn't help it. I bought it.
A few others sold in the past few months right at that price point. This is NOS. Full lume! (Oh, and a classy date window!)

Considering these are around $950 new, this looks like a great price for an Archimede OutDoor at $550.
Especially that this comes on the bracelet.

Good price on a Scurfa Bell Diver. These are autos with Miyota 9015 movements. This one is tempting to snag for myself, but I think 43mm is just too big for me.

No bids yet and only 1 hour left. Seems like a good deal for a great looking vintage piece, but I have no knowledge of this brand or the seller so do your due diligence.

Looks like one of those franken/fake watches. Favre leuba are very commonly faked in india much like Oris, Fortis, Seiko 5, Citizen, Rado. I'm sure some parts are original but the dial definitely is not. Don't think the hands are either

Favre-Leuva is the second most anicent swiss brand, behind Blancpain. Another victim of the quartz crisis.

This is worth checking out. Pick a vintage automatic Timex from this photo and have it serviced and delivered on a strap for $50-$100. Read post for more.

This one is interesting. A Longines Legend Diver no date on Goodwill auctions. Ends in 7 hours and current bid is $1,428. This could be a great deal for a rare-ish favorite. HOWEVER, the condition is listed as "Condition: Watches Are Not Tested for Functionality. Sold AS IS for Parts or Repair. " Not sure if this means it isn't working or just that they haven't tested it. Also the bracelet either isn't attached correctly or is like 2mm too narrow.

Anyway, if you feel like taking a chance, this could be a cool acquisition.

I've just talked myself out of buying this so now I want to burden you with the same decision :)

BNIB Orange Collins Sonar for $400 shipped. Looks like it's been available for over a month, and the price has dropped over that time, but you might be able to negotiate it down further. I have no relation whatsoever to this post.
