Horrible, and you’ll lose about £1000 as soon as you put it on your wrist

@Gunk - I've about 12 Rado watches, mostly 1960's, but nothing as blingy as this. My preference is 'understated style' rather than showing off.

Day-to-day I wear a simple Skagen Grenen and the Rado's are one part of my alternative pension fund.

Yeah, those are like the 1970s on steroids!

Now I actually really like some of the bonkers 70s designs - Zodiac did some good ones, but there *IS* a limit LOL! I have a couple (Seiko & Citizen) but most of my watches are from the mid / late 60s - the point where designs start getting more interesting, but before they go a bit too OTT funky. Classic with a twist is how I like to see it.

When it comes to Rado, something like a Green Horse or Purple Horse is much easier on the eye.

It’s better to ask the questions before you make an offer. If they accept the offer but you’re not happy with the replies, you’re stuck with it

I've got several of the Rado 'Horse' variety

This.

And to do your "homework"

Well the seller has rejected my offer, so maybe I'll make another one later, after asking questions and hopefully receiving answers.

Hey, maybe the blingy extremely blingy Rado is a fake?! 🤔

You can always not pay. A single non payment against your account is likely on little consequence. Just don’t make a habit of it.

It’s not a model that is often faked though they do exist.

This video give signs to look out for.

You can but it’s better not to take the mick when you can just ask your questions before bidding

Hey, I've just had a message in ebay from some guy offering me £400 for my fake watch, the one that doesn't work and is covered in scratches. Think ill have that!
