Can someone tell me if this Sub is real or fake...

I know it's hard to tell from one pic, but any help would be appreciated.

100% counterfeit. The coronet on the dial is the first clue.

Is it me or couldn't they do a better job at inserting the dial properly so it doesn't look like it is off-center?

Hands, magnification and dial/bezel color are all horrible. Buy it for it's weight as scrap metal.

Just curious. How much are they asking for this joke of a watch?

The date magnification does not look good at all. Looks like a fake to me, too.
