The "16233" on the caseback is a bit of a howler, also.

Also the seller has very few sales and all have been cheapie crap. This is one to run from as fast as you can.

Do you really have to ask? Crappy pictures, crappy items sold new member. Don't buy anything of value on FleeBay unless you know where the seller lives. If these clowns had their legs broken they would not pull this crap.

The box is of the generic variety that people with fake or preowned watches cling to. The plastic on the bracelet? Please. 10 feedback? No thank you.

I was noticing the same thing. What's with the plastic wrap? Also, that box material is awful. I can't see too well the watch. I would not entertain any thoughts of this one.

LOL! I can't even see the dial well enough to tell much, but the caseback is wrong (not to mention the hologram), endlinks are from space, clasp is wrong, crown guards are wrong, font on the insert looks funky.
I'd pass. |

Well, I emailed Ebay about the suspect GMT and they said thanks for the report. However, the sale is carrying on and it is up to £820 by now.
I would be well peeved if I had bought it without realising and it was a fake and someone had actually tried to alert Ebay with specialist knowledge. It pays to be alert when on Ebay. PeterT |

At last it is gone, I bet the person who bid up to £820 is pleased with the lucky escape!!
