Fake, Right?
Not even sure why I'm asking. I'm no expert, but I can already spot a few things that seem wrong with it (number fonts, weights, etc.)
Anyhow, any master spotters wanna weigh in? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Cosmog...#ht_500wt_1054 |

Crazy, though, the guy has 1000+, 100% positive feedback. Hacked account? Is this common on eBay?

That's crazy. The watch is obviously fake, but the seller has over 1000 feedback at 100%. He honestly may not know its a fake.

Yes, it's a bad replica and if you look at the seller's other items he appears to be a good eBayer in his area of expertise (mechanical things).
In the spirit of communication I contacted the seller to explain that it's fake. Mods: This belongs in the Watch Out area to help others her on TRF.

His father left him "a lot of property and expensive cars and this watch", but apparently not a nail-file and hygiene etiquette. Looks like dude need a shower....

You are kinder than me. A seller with this feedback should know better IMO. This feedback could just move a buyer to purchase a fake and this is the opposite of how it should be.
