Good Tudor Snow Fake / Franken

OK, a fake is a fake, good or not, but this bait will catch some fish sadly.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/TUDOR-SNOWFL...item27ccad9bae

Hands are wrong, insert is wrong (though that is not uncommon), hard to tell from pics but the case looks wrong in several places, around the guards, etc. Can't see the engravings well enough.

BTW - here is a previous listing from same person: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TUDOR-SNOWFL...p2047675.l2557

What about her two previous sales? Not that those were suspect too...
These stories just bother me in general.

seller all of a sudden did not guarantee authenticity of watch and would not accept returns if not as described but he listed as 14 days return policy. Kinda weird for a honest seller.

Somebody from switzerland bought a watch from him, hope he got a true watch other wise, he bought a very expensive replica.

.....it does show that it sold; however, it was re-listed and then the auction was ended, by either the seller or Ebay. This is why what we do here on TRF is important to me and the watch enthusiast community. We keep countless numbers of potential victims from being robbed by the scumbag thieves on the internet. It seems like internet theft and fraud is an easy and relatively safe (for the crooks) way to find a mark. And for some reason, I feel more determined and more committed to fight these perpetrators with each passing day. Okay, I will step down from my soapbox now! Keep up the excellent work everyone.
