HI. Well here I go again trying to correct some history.A person has a Synchronar(actualy it is a Sunwatch with a faulty Synchronar band) at ebay.This person must have a fair knowlege of what they have because of the way it is priced.I have emailed the seller and still awaiting a reply.
My Concern(although I might be alone on this) is that if I let this go it will just continue and continue.Then it would take several more years to correct if I don't react now.
What,s wrong with the watch at ebay?
1.The description says vintage 70,s---sorry but I told him the flat top(no groove) was not made until 1981.
2. The instruction booklet is for a MK II from pre "77" unlike the MK III with PM indicator shown.
3. The description calls it a Ragen Synchronar---how could that be if it is a MK III and has the flat top? It was made by Riehl Time Corp.Note the box has a Riehl Tag.
4.The gold trim gift box is for a Synchronar(bar down the center) Gold plate or Solid Gold.Not a SW-SS with a Synchronar type band.
5.To top all this off the Band that was never used for a SW or Synchronar either,it is not wide enough at the lugs.It is one of a whole box of remaining stock my father purchased from the maker a few years back.They were to be fixed with the proper width piece installed at the joining to the case.
Conclusion. This must be an offspring of one of my brothers auctions or merchandise that was stolen from my father in 2004 before he passed.
Opinions???
