He even states at the top of the auction that it has an ETA 2386 movement!

Good that you report the fake watches. You are protecting what you like + many people that cannot understand the difference and get fooled

Look at his description...

He copy/pasted it right off the replica site
"Perfect weight and feel"...no kidding...if it's real, perfect weight and feel are a given. The lazy schmo didn't even have the brains to change the dial color in the description, it says white and the dial is black.

This guy is out to seriously defraud people. His previous auction was up to over $4000 USD when I reported it and now he's right back with this fake YM. There is a special place in hell for people like this who intentionally seek to commit fraud.
