    I'm Watch connects to your Smart Phone (Via blue-tooth tethering)

    These are impossible to get, if you're looking at it, you know what it is
    See link below posted for sale on Adverts.ie



    http://www.adverts.ie/mens-watches/i-m-watch-connects-to-your-smart-phone-via-blue-tooth-tethering/2511079?notification=86169f6db91fbf8b587bd5f11c9bbeb5-1357920664

    I'm Watch White 128 MB with most recent Firmware

    PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BELOW

    YOUR PHONE NEEDS TETHERING( I-Phone is fine)and most makes have it check first.

    Reason for sale is i have a Samsung Note but no Tethering :(

    Looking for € 300 Euro from €350 previously,

    This is one of the coveted I'm Watches, running Android that connects to your Smart Phone (Via blue-tooth tethering) and can show you your emails on screen,
    face-book and twitter notifications,
    weather, play music, show photos, and hands-free.

    This is the model with 128 MB of Ram, 4 gigs of storage.
    There are very few of these for sale anywhere as the company have taken nearly 14 months to begin shipping them.
    This is certainly one of the only whites.
    It's in it's original box brand new, unmarked.

    Might have to get it fixed as it happens - it's only lasting a few days at a time before it dies, and needs to be left on the window sill :(

    Picked this up for the wife a long while back but she can't wear it. The bracelet I purchased from Scott Alisson, (timesofplenty, alisson leather works) he sells a lot of nos straps and bracelets. It's a shame to leave this sitting in a drawer, so looking for a good home.

    Selling my Citizen BM7120-01A titanium watch, I am no more a golfer than I am a diver but at least the divers get some wrist time.

    Unusual one but here's one I picked up last year and had some work done including repair of the lugs and a new strap to compliment it. Have my beady eye on something at the moment this is on the block!

    This is just gathering dust as you can see from the pics, so moving it on. There are some going cheaper without a stand on eBay, but postage tends to be high (not taking into account any customs). Discount for forum regulars of course :)

    IMHO that's a damn good price. I've seen few enough going cheaper E and the "person" that offered 20 quid... Yea he may offer, but before I'd agree to that I'd take a hammer to it first TBH. As for authenticity, the thing is they aren't faked. Sure their provenance is often massaged "from Soviet Tank/Mig jet" stuff, but faked, no. There were enough made at the time to mean it would be financially daft to fake one.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,257 ✭✭✭✭Eoin


    Thanks Wibbs - I just updated the advert having gotten another silly offer by PM. These are available for 50 on eBay, but that's before shipping, customs and the stand that's being sold with it.

    I don't know what it is about adverts.ie that encourages all these stupid lowball offers.

    Edit: Sale agreed!

    Cheers, haven't got an email yet so wasn't aware but that's good stuff. Offers are a little low for me but, sure, maybe one will progress just a bit higher? :)


    Out of interest, on the other watch I have up there's a definite scuff mark to the side - is that likely a deal breaker altogether?

    It's due to the delay in ordering with Steinhart and also they were out of stock (still are?)for a long time so they command good second hand value.

    Fair enough, it says "end of march" availability on the website but doesn't specify what year! :)

    Still think it's an ambitious "no offers" price mind, certainly put my interest off.

    Normally I'd agree, but the Steinharts are rare second hand and often not available to buy new. They keep their value extremely well

    I was looking for a second hand one myself, but it emerged my budget of about €200 was nowhere near enough to buy one. If you want a quality Swiss watch with an ETA 2824-2 movement for a very limited budget, there's always the Quondams. Got mine for €210 shipped brand new :)
