Anyone feel like letting me know if my skepticism is unwarranted?

More like 20¢

A toy truck would be a suitable trade.

Ooh that's a birth-year watch for me. I sent her Bitcoin AND Western Union just to make sure I'm first in line for it. LOLOLOLOLOL.

This isn't even funny. In 1963 this watch wasn't even in production yet. This is obviously a bad rep and its of a 5 digit 16610 from the 80's-90's vintage. Anyone with google should be able to call BS on this.

First off, font looksoff, pearl is.... something else bezel Does Not
have much patina on it (worrying for something of this age) also both models from this era (5512 and 5513) do not have date windows.

This watch looks as if it has been assembled from a mish mash of parts, I highly doubt it is genuine

Depends, I would only trade my Tonka if the seller was going to give me some cash and the watch, :lol:

And yet the seller says "do your research"!

I live in NC - this is the area of the state that's got the absentee ballot scandal going on in one of our Congressional elections. So no surprise that someone thinks they can sell a Canal Street Special for $5K.

Bahahaha. I sent an email saying literally that same thing to her and asked for service history and better pics. TBC...

Thanks for your elaborate explanation, sir. I am glad you doubt in it's authenticity
