Looks ok, but the 12 on the 9 o'clock subdial seems a bit closer to the border than I'd be comfortable with.

Not a very good picture really. I don't like what I'm seeing either.

OP, you should check with TRF before buying off eBay. Just a helpful tip.

Well im not that seasoned and still learning, but ive been able to spot cheats and genuine dealers on ebay. My advice is to ask him for loads of pictures and post it here. and really, if your gut says no, stay away

I'm not an expert, but at least you have the right subdials. From the angle of the picture, it looks as if "Daytona" is going into the lower subdial, thats the one odd item for me.

I'm afraid it looks fake to me, the space between the middle subdial and DAYTONA just isn't right.

I'd say 99/100 of these 'I have an option on this, just checking its genuine' posts, the OP knows for a fact they're fake and are hoping for a PM off a genuine TRF member offering to buy the fugazi!!

The print of the dial looks very poor. Seems crooked too. Might be your picture, but I doubt it.

I might be wrong, but I'd say fake.

There are only 2 things that seem off about that dial which are the lack of texture on the subdial rings which could just be the quality of the picture not capturing it right and more than anything else, the price. The cheapest I have ever seen a Daytona dial in good condition go for is nearly 3 times that. If you already bought it, take some better pictures and one of the back of the dial as well.
