Re: Serial Number is from Chronomatic Range

I was very, very interessed to buy this watch, but a lot of things, looking the pictures, are not good for me.

The case is polished and not original... the right one is gone. Very strange an hard corrosion on Autavia case and find another 141xxx.
The stiker on the caseback, too different from the others that I saw till today (late 60).
Movement not correct for the watch.
Box not correct.

It seems to me a put together, a good project, but put together.

NOS means, for me, New Old Stock... never worn before.
A NOS is not a restored or repolished, with another case and another movement!

Sorry, but I don't like this situation and the seller have to declare all these things on his first presentation.
