The seller shipped quickly and the packaging was excellent. The crystal was in new condition in the original Seiko envelope. Overall I am very happy with tge service and price. It gave this $20 Ebay find a new lease on life. Thanks!
I guess it's ok. The Bulova tin it came in had been opened and the balance was wrapped in tissue paper. All other Bulova balances I've ordered were packed in a tin with a sponge like material. Shipping was a little slow.
Product was as described, was shipped very soon after purchase was confirmed, and was sent in protected packaging so that it arrived with no damage. Great all-around experience; highly recomended.
