Definite fake. Laser crown on the crystal is way too easily visible, the engraving on the rehalt looks wrong, and a green hologram sticker on the case back.

Odd indeed. Sold an Oyster to a 10 feedback buyer and got feedback.
But then it's eBay

Maybe he's banking on the fact he is willing to offer a refund will make an unsuspecting buyer feel better about buying a $5k fake.

Looks too shady for my liking. I call foul.

What a POS!

I like the upside down pic.

The "SWISS MADE" doesn't look right.

Maybe it's just the picture, but the crown really looks odd.

This is the second time this seller has attempted to sell this watch. This is the same watch that was under question on the post started by rgdejong on July 18. In that post the seller was using two different watches in the photos...one appeared real and then this fake one. That auction was terminated, but he obviously is trying again. Also, look at the links...the center links on the bracelet appear to be hollow....another incorrect part for a 2009 Sub...

That's definitely a fake. Bezel engraving and crown engraving are wrong.

I agree, usually pretty illusive to photograph the etch at 6. And he claims his pics arn't very good :(

I tried recently to remove a HBB AB2, to no avail... Some sap got ripped for around $7K, sucks to be him.

I'd stay away or ask for better pics... Of the movement ;)
