My other passion!!

Just want to post something not Oracle related, my other passion!!

Vintage Watch buying questioner:

Is the watch running? If yes, is it keeping time?
Do you know how old it is?
How long does it run if fully wound (if a manual-wind mechanical watch)?
Is the watch is manual-wind / Automatic / Quartz(Battery)?
Where did you get the watch?
Why are you selling it?
Do you know when it was last serviced?
Can you provide additional photos of the inner case back / outer case back / crown / serial number(s) / lugs / strap / buckle, etc.?
Do you know if the dial has been refinished or replaced?
Do you know if the dial has been re-lumed? Does the lume glow in the dark for a long period of time?
What is the length (in millimeters) of the watch from the left side of the case to the right side of the case excluding the crown?
Does it come with the original box and / or papers such as the directions and receipt?
