To quote a recent post of mine:
Going back 10 years of so, one of the worst of the bunch was Filipino eBay seller badingski. In recent years, the quality of his 'restored' offerings seemed to have improved. But it looks like he's suffered a major relapse. Overnight, he listed this two-tone 7A38-7289, as a 7-day auction with an opening bid price of $9.99. Or at least it once was one of those.

I've only bothered uploading 4 of his 11 listing photos, but that should suffice. Badingski has always liberally misused the word 'original', regardless of the watch's true condition. So where shall we start ? All traces of the worn gold plating have been removed from the bezel, crown, pushers and the bracelet's centre links. The supposedly 'good condition' dial has evidently suffered some catastrophic water damage. The bracelet's first joining links have been stretched open and he hasn't bothered to pinch them up. The pièce de résistance has to be that battery acid ravaged movement back-plate.
For anyone who's in doubt as to how a two-tone 7A38-7289 SAA110J should look, here's a photo from an old eBay listing:
Not that it'll deter desperate and impecunious bidders from wasting their money, I'll reiterate the words of the Bard ...
