After the watch description were the words, 'In unemployed condition'

Polite phrasing for 'it don't work'.

Regards! Mark

Maybe the watch is just retired? I am retired and that would describe me.

well looks like the watch needs a job.

Best advertisement on e-Bay I ever saw said "watch winds, but doesn't tick. May need servicing".

I saw one where the seller had 'NOS' in the heading description and looked at it assuming New Old Stock.

Further into the description he expanded on the term saying it was Not Often Seen.

Also, 'wants to run' is always good for a chuckle.
