My first rep many years ago was a "Daytona" that I paid $150 for and when it arrived it was just a fully sterile POS with a microscopic quartz movement, crappy SS plating and a band that was fubar'd.
Fortunately, UPS lost it when I shipped it to a relative a few states away & they paid the insurance on it...

I got lucky. Maybe you can too (wink, wink, nudge, nudge).
