From the post: "With its original dial both intact and in fantastic condition, the Valentine watch is both virtually identical to the Fleming-Bond watch, and evidence case numbers that put the two watches within hours of each other in original production."

Wow, that's wild. Can't get any closer to the real thing than that.
