Is this a fake?

Im pretty sure this is a fake, what do you guys think? Was browsing around ebay for a submariner, and i came across this. I dont trust buying anything off ebay anymore. It sucks being paranoid if things are fake or not.

http://cgi.ebay.com/BRAND-NEW-MENS-S...d=p3286.c0.m14

If link doesnt work then item number is 250311155290

What makes you think its a fake?
I do not know myself, seems legit to me BUT
I am sure someone who knows these things will
chime in real soon.

Just curious why you doubt it.

Yeah looks pretty legit, he has sold other high ticket items in the past. Plus the fact that the Sub No-Date commands a substantially lower price than the Sub Date, and the fact that the reserve in the auction hasn't been met yet.

IMHO, if you have to ask a bunch of strangers on an Internet forum, you should be only buying from an AD.

Shouldn't the Warranty Card have the Serial Number punched through it? I don't have mine to hand so can't remember if I'm telling porkies or not.

Apart from that it looks legit. But don't take my word for it!
