His text has some good detail, about the model number, etc.

The pictures of a supposedly new/near new GMT II is shown in a strange non-Rolex watch box, the bezel of the watch in the picture is incorrect in comparison to the real deal, and its also red and black instead of the red and blue that is advertsied.

Someone who didn't know better could get really fleeced.

Furthermore if you look at the pic of the back it looks like the bracelet is not solidly connected to the case- it looks loose, unlike the originals.

The GMT bracelet will NOT have the diver extension links and has the shorter clasp....like this!!





And here are some pics of the SUB bracelet with diver extension links.

can't believe there is such a difference in length of the clasp- never noticed before. I suppose thats because i was never a huge fan of the GMT until i joined here and fell in love with the GMTII cc.
Thanks JJ

This guy's got a fake Tag and Breitling for sale also. Somebody needs to report his so somebody does not get taken. I reported him.

I reported this to kijiji and they responded back promptly that they would look in to it. I told them that he had 3 fake watches for sale. They wrote back today and stated that all of them had been pulled and thanked me for the report. They don't mess around in Canada. Too bad E-bay is not the same way.

Yeah, the Steve Francouer scammer that conned me was using Kijiji as well, but he was later banned for using it to con unsuspecting buyers.
