I’ll add my two cents to this thread.
Roger, you’re nuts for selling this!!!
Seriously, I love this watch and I’m so glad I bought one. It’s become one of my go to pieces. Helson punches in the next class when it comes to frugals. Somebody needs to jump on this watch and keep it in the WWF family. I’ve known Roger for many years now through the forums and have been fortunate enough to hang out with him on several occasions. He’s as trustworthy as they come - buy with confidence.

It's a great value for sure with the ETA 2824 and great styling. I have too many frugals and some need to go. I'm pairing it down to the Zodiac and the Seaforth that I have pre-ordered. I'm probably listing my Samurai and Monster soon too, but need to see the Seaforth IRL first. I saw one listed at $475 on WUS that sold quickly (not sure what the sale price was). The lug ding is so small I didn't see it until I saw it in the close up photo, so it's nothing to worry about. I've priced this to try to keep it in the WWF family, but if no bites by the weekend, I'll bump up the price a bit and put it on WUS.

If you are interested but think my price is too high, PM me with an offer. Seems reasonable to me,but there isn’t a price history on these on the seconadary market yet.
Also, the lug ding is not prevalent IRL - macros always over accentuate defects.
