It's a POS fake, but I am guessing you already knew that...

He shouldn't be a friend if he's trying to sell you fake stuff. How much is he charging you? That's a 70k priced watch.

The OP is just wasting our time. A friend wants to sell it to him. This guys didn't even have enough money to buy it. He probably got this from canal street in NYC

This guy wanted to get our opinion on this fake watch. And if we said hey it looks good to me. He would probably wear it and pass it off as real and not be worried someone will call him out in it.

So.... You're considering a $50k purchase from "a friend trying to sell me this watch," (as if he needs extra cash this month and you coincidently need a new watch) and your only due diligence is a random forum post? Oh, and the watch is a bad fake. I need to call BS on this.

^ THIS

I agree, calling BS on this one.

OP also pre-empts anyone asking for more pics, stating in the first post " I CANNOT ADD MORE PICTURES"
Seriously? You want to risk $50-70K but are to lazy to take another pic?

People, I think we need to come up with a different strategy. By calling out the fake, we are helping refine the fake. Maybe we need to take George Contanza's example. If every instinct we have is to call out the fake, let's do the opposite! Praise the beauty of the watch. Admire the fortunate buyer who found the too-good-to-be-true bargain of the century.

Maybe then the shysters will be lulled into a false sense of security, let their guards down, making them easier to catch!
