.

Sub on some pictures, SD on others ...

3 different s/n on documents : F236725 , M367611 , Z178009


Probably all watches showed are real ones, but most probably no one is the one you'll receive at the end of the deal ...

Seller use pictures taken from the internet.

I won't go further on this deal if I was you ...

Have to agree too many alarm bells ringing pictures are just that pictures.

In the future, I guess one way of assuring that seller actually has the watch is to get them to take another photo as close as the ones shown above but with a paper in the background hand written with some phrase that you've asked them to write down.
