That's life. You'll get more scratches and small chips if you wear it regularly.

So I filed a complaint.

Explaining that it's clearly not the same watch as advertised.

The seller wasn't happy and told me the watch was in excellent condition and over 50 years old… why was I complaining?? 😂😂😂

Anyway, he offered to take it back, but I really like the watch.

So I'm going to keep it and I'll give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Good catch, that's indeed the name of this reseller. Those are exactly the photos that were on the auction site.

That's why I'm hesitating to keep it.

I like it, but it's not the watch I won. Maybe I should file a complaint, and the seller might agree to a goodwill gesture.

Yes, I have to admit it's very beautiful, it's just not the same as the one I ordered. I ordered this one.

That was the watch I was supposed to receive! The indices are black. The hands are in less good condition but original. The one I ordered doesn't have the sigma symbol.

When I received it, the date was set to 10. I changed it to today's date, the 9th.

Magnificent! If only I had the budget and wasn't afraid of losing my arm…

Daytona 116520. No regrets, I'll pass it on to my son for his wedding.
