I put up on Ebay a very rare Sinclair FM watch radio. Very few were made.

Would be great if you put up a link, I am too lazy to search and when searching in like ebay.com you often dont see offers from like ebay france without adjusting the search. :wink:
I guess you mean this one:

Sorry about being honest: The picture is quite crappy. I can see that it's the watch in its original box and thats about it. For such an exceptional piece you will get much more $$$ if you take the time to make MANY photos and a much better description, with an ebay offer like this I'd estimate you lose several hundred USD against offering the same watch with loads of very high quality close-up pictures. Also try to write a bit about the watch's history, although everyone here knows it well it will always make a better impression if you write more then just 3 lines.
At least mention that the LCD display is not suffering from LCD "bleeding", a common fault with this type of display that dramatically lowers the value. Although its obvious for the experts, just give the buyer a better feeling by mentioning that all parts are still original, that the strap does not have any flaws or signs of desintegration, after reading that the buyer must get the impression that this watch is in the best condition available. You really lose money if you let it go this way.
