Should I Buy a Second Cushion Case Hamilton 983?
I bought a men's Cushion Case Hamilton 983 from a reputable seller. The case is a Fahys Bristol (25-year gold filled) case, which would be consistent with what Hamilton used for the cushions at that time. The price was fair, more like "not unreasonable." He has offered me a second similar watch at the same price. The second watch has a Brooklyn Watch Case Co. case (owned by Fahys and known to be used by Hamilton). The case is a Brooklyn Monarch; a case with which I am not familiar. The second offering shows a screw mark on the case lip, possibly indicating a marriage or some removal/reinstallation of the movement. I am debating whether to purchase the second watch. Cushion 983's are scarce as hen's teeth. These are the springbar models, not the wire lug models. The movement may or may not be original to the case. Overall condition is good to very good. Any thoughts?

Rolex Sues Melrose Jewelers for Counterfeiting, Trademark Infringement
Agarwal Vows to Vehemently Defend the ChargesMelrose.com claims that it acquires authentic luxury timepieces to sell online. Besides offering the Rolex brand, the company also sells Breitling, Cartier, Tag Heuer and Omega along with custom diamond jewelry. It claims that revenue in 2011 was more than $10 million. The company's president, Krishan Agarwal, told the Los Angeles Times this morning that Melrose.com sells "preowned" watches and restores Rolex watches among others but it does not include counterfeit parts with those repairs. He said the company "will be vehemently defending the lawsuit and our right to resell used authentic goods."
