eBay Yachtmaster?
Looks kind of flaky to me- guaranteed authentic but no reserve. I'm not a Yachtmaster expert - what do the experts think?

1st time poster, I don't claim to be an expert but something looks wrong to me, the watch case, bezel, etc. look too dull, not crisp and polished like a real one, my friend LVsuber has this exact watch he purchased from an AD in Kansas, and compared to his, there is no comparison. Could just be the photos, but I would be cautious. You guys and gals on this forum provide some great info, thanks to you all.

Too many warning signs here. New seller with limited feedback and unless I miss my guess, these are someone else's pictures. The pictures look like they were taken from the Bernard Watch Co. Compare: http://www.bernardwatch.com/watch/RLX4381

Those pictures are originally from Bernard Watch Co, same branding, angle and so on, down to the picture of the accessories, the discrepancies with the serial number from photo to description makes this listing stink, you would not get what is pictured

...if you look at the WINNING BIDDER in the bid history...
...you will see that the seller was being harrassed by a "0" feedbacker and is NO LONGER a registered user.
...this is evidenced in BOTH prior listings. ...seems the SELLER had a problem with BOGUS buyers!!! |

Just filed fraud report
Guess we'll see what happens. I noted the discrepancy in the listing vs. the shown serial # on the warranty card pictured.

The dial has fat rounded lettering, that is not crisp. I think it's definately bogus. put them side by side.
