Gruen Apprentice

An update: for some kind of impulse I decided to write to the seller of the closed ebay auction that I posted above if he could ask on my behalf to the buyer if he was willing to sell the watch for a bigger sum.
After a few day I got a message from the seller saying that he got the watch back because the buyer wanted it for a gift that didn't end well and that if I wanted it I could make him my offer. I was very puzzled and doubtful that this watch was in his possession again just when I asked about it, so I wrote him back saying that I needed some proof that he actually had the watch. So I asked to send me two pics, one with the hands pointing at 7:25 and one of the internal of caseback, and if everything was right I could offer $1,000 for it. In a few minutes he sent the two pics requested and accepted the offer, so we closed the deal with a buy-it-now auction and yesterday the watch arrived, it is still not in my hands because I had it shipped to a friend in USA that will bring it to me when will come back to Italy in about a month but the point is that I got it, and I think also for a good price all things considered.
Just thinking it was a nice story to share, strange coincidences can happen
