Anyone has experience on
INGERSOLL IN2705WHMB Automatic Boonville Dual Time M-White Bracelet LE
Just see some review from internet, actually is not that good for the movement.
Mind to share your experience on the brand or the model of this watch?

"Ingersoll" had been an enterprise that produced watches for $1 in 1905.
Later that enterprise went bankrupt and the name was sold.
Nowadays "Ingersoll" has nothing to do with former "Robert H. Ingersoll & Brother",
but they cite it on their homepage nevertheless. ;D
The movements are (mostly) cheapest China production
but many buyers believe those "Ingersolls" were precious
because of all those holes in the dial!! *lol*

About $25
Offered for $314 !

Hands off!
The same watch/movement for $62:
=>
And a similar one for $28
=>
Still making l a lot of profit!
You just glue "Ingersoll" on the dial
and then offer it for $389 ... reduced from $575 :thumbsup:

Hello, zk18,
just in case you like that design you should
look at E-bay´s for "Lindberg":
=>

There you will find dozens of those Chinese watches - only with the sticker "Lindberg" glued on
instead of "Ingersoll" - I am quite sure they both fall off the same conveyor band.
And those "Lindbergs" are $97 US only!
