Let us know when you make the decision. I think should go for it, that is a great price for sure.

Good luck!

You have to wonder why the seller is selling for a lot less than the what the market calls for. Be careful.

If these turn out to be legit I may be interested in the black face.

Update

Well, just to update all those kind enough to chime in - the deal went flat!

The seller started jerking me around and wanting to send the watch only half insured, as well as being generally unfriendly from the start. Didnt like his attitude as he was becoming rude so I just pulled the plug and said goodbye.

As you guys so rightly stated, youve got to buy the seller, then the watch!

Thanks for all your advice, will wait for the next one to come up

Ive not doubt their legit, the sellers have impecable feedback and are well known in the Spanish forums.

The only issue you may have is language barrier? And possibly customs issues, but in your case not as I see youre in the UK.

If youre interested I'll pull the you the links on what Ive found during my travels

Hi Matt,

If you could forward on the links that would be really kind.

Thanks very much.

We banned someone selling a 216570 at $5750, using lifted pics.

Be sure that you know the seller is 100% legit.

It is easy to fake references.
