Yes, the ebay seller did not know anything about the watch. It was listed as a Roamer Chronograph, also there where no photos of the movement, and the describtion did not mention anything about the movement. You can still find valjoux 72 series movements on ebay for very good prices, you just have to be patient and know how to look for them. The best way to look for these movements is to first learn which watch brands used VJ72 series movements, and then serach for these brands. If you do a serach on Valjoux 72 on the bay, you will have to pay the market price which is over $1000 at the moment and increasing...
BTW, the VJ726 that i got was i real beauty, it looks brand new, it is in perfect condition and does not even need to be cleaned...
