PVD is the name of the (black) coating....
It stands for Physical Vapour Deposition..!!
If it a real Sub,its not new...(Maybe newly coated) Has an odd looking box and the older style warranty papers....

eBay.au won't let you report a counterfeit item! This is a Fugazi if I have ever seen one. The cyclops doesn't even magnify correctly! Crown guard too long.




Plastic on the band!



Fake papers....

Ebay.com.au reporting has been up and down for a long time, just remove the .au and report via .com :-)
