I don't know why some eBay sellers just make up descriptions. This has to be one of the best.
I had to message him and put him straight, ( don't know why I do ).
He replied and called me an ass... Lol.

Please could fellow members please message him and also tell him his description is absolute nonsense too.

Wow, lol at that listing. I am tempted to message him, just to ask if the spoon is included.

I think it's "Merlin" the Magician who is selling this unique 1970 piece :-D

seems like the watch originally advertised itself as using the "world famous Kuatron module"; this seller seems to be honoring the spirit of the original product ;-). (Kuatron having been not that famous actually)

Anyone got an app that can send this idiot 10,000 programmable ebay offers ranging from 50p to £1 ??

I bought a remarkably similar item for £20 last year. For the money, its not bad ! Certainly better value than the £4,500 super rare 1970 version in the link ...

I did. I offered to sell him all six that I own for the bargain price of £99, explaining that by his infallable logic he could make back £9,000.

He refused my offer.

Some people, ehh ? ;-)

Guy's I've just realised why we're all reading this so wrong. Below is the original (unedited) version of the Listing.
Bit's that were removed are in std black the original in red. WARNING. :no:

A 1970 's Digital Led Watch
untouched, unworn,
unbelievably described/fantasised about,
not even started or anywhere near to being correctly listed.

:fool: :grin1: ;-)

IF YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR SMART WATCH DOESN'T NEED CHARGING AT LEAST EVERY WEEK YOU EITHER...
A. HAVE NO LIFE/FRIENDS. OR NEED FOR ONE.
B. YOU NEED TO SWITCH IT ON.
