Be careful buying stuff like that on eBay. My wife is a powerseller and recently she sold a Louis Vitton purse to a buyer in Canada. She never got paid. Turns out, another seller my wife knew also didn't get paid by this buyer. Turns out this buyer has also been selling some rather expensive watches ($3,000+) on eBay. The watches were fakes.

To make a long story short, the CMP (Canadian Mounted Police) arrested her three days ago and charged with multiple counts of fraud, counterfitting, selling stuff she didn't have and other charges.

If you have to buy a watch on eBay (try pawn shops and sole-proprietor jewelry stores first), make sure its from a buyer with a long history and lots of good feedback.
