Taking a hard look at this

Hello All- I have been through a purchase of a fake and would like to avoid it this time. I think I am a little more educated now, but still do not have near the expertise as those of you here. So, what is your opinion of this 7928 currently on Ebay?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/251730492592...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Your input is greatly appreciated

Some sellers can be trusted on ebay, just a matter of due diligence on your part.
You have done the right thing by posting here.
The experts on Tudor should be along soon.
Nice looking watch

If you have been through the purchase of a fake then you should know better than to be shopping on ebay

Please....

Bezel insert is DEFINITELY aftermarket. I believe the entire watch is fake also, but the Tudor sub experts should be along shortly.

-- Caseback engraving and dimensions look off
-- Movement looks off
-- Dial printing very crisp (looks too new)
-- Midcase looks off

plenty of Tudor Subs for sale with the respected sellers on the different forums...
i can not express myself on this specimen due to lack of knowledge on tudor watches but why take the risk on ebay...

Complete and total UpGefucht Fake - Already reported to Ebay within 6 hours of listing.

E V E R Y T H I N G - is bad on this watch. The movement, while a 390, is not from the subs line.

Thank You for the input

All- thank you for the insight- I'm out- Just for the record the first fake I bought was not from ebay, and luckily the seller had integrity and refunded my money, but I hear what everyone is saying about ebay.

OKay, you've found TrF, now get off eBay and use our sellers and all these issues go away
