Unique and Expensive 1960's Camera Watch for Sale on eBay: One-of-a-Kind Masterpiece for James Bond

Sat, 12/15/2007 - 04:12 — EbayBlog

First camera watch, made in 1969 While different gadgets built into wristwatches and phones isn't all that notable nowadays, back in the 1960's, it wasn't that easy. That's why this unbelievable Kilfitt UKA 659 camerawatch is so sweet.

It's a very tiny analogue camera packed into a stylish (at least for its time) watch. Only one of them was ever made, created in the 60's as a prototype by famed optician Heinz Kilfitt in his Munich laboratory. It uses custom film disc, has a shutter speed from 1/15 sec to 1/1,000 sec and 1.3mm - 10.5mm lens. This beautiful piece of history ain't so cheap as its modern Chinese analogues, but if you have $60,000 to spend there'd be worse ways to squander it.

If you are planning on

If you are planning on selling on ebay -- don't.
As a power seller t-
hese days selling on ebay is the most stressful and horrible experience of my life.
I'm currently looking at other ways to sell on line, ebay isn't it.
Why?
The current feedback system is set up totally against the seller. The premise is that all sellers are bad.
No longer can a seller leave anything but a postive, and the buyer has no responsiblity at all.
You pay horrible fees to ebay and not once have they ever done anything to help me or support me.
I have gotten negative feedbacks from buyers, for all kinds of reasons.
1. The package wasn't delivered -- that would be because the buyer had the wrong address on all of her information. I shipped within two days, but I got the negative "because when I buy something I except it to be here in a short amount of time". It would have been if you had the right address.
2. Bought something, three days later left two negatives, didn't pay for it. I suppose to ship when it hasn't been paid for, and he is in France. Come on!
3. Doesn't match the color on the picture exactly... wanted to keep the item, didn't want to return it, it was good enough to keep, but unless I gave him a full refund he wouldn't withdraw the feedback. That is fraud, and ebay not only doesn't do anything about it, but this buyer in the last three months has done it to 15 sellers....
Not a good place for sellers, there is no civil rights and no protection.
Oh, sure you can get the feedback withdrawn, but only 5 in a year......
So, buyers have at it. Go on ebay purchase a item, leave a negative feedback and tell the seller if you refund me I'll withdraw the feedback.
It works.
Every day, there is a email with a threat of a negative feedback.
It's gotton out of control, when one party has no checks or balances they go for it, and really why shouldn't they!
Ebay is not a good place to sell, look elsewhere, like ****.com , cheaper and much nicer place!
