What I donīt like at all is the bezel insert. It looks very fake.
Sorry, I had not read the ad. It had been given to him by his grandfather. That is a 99% indication of "fakeness". Last edited by joseluu; 12 January 2013 at 11:25 PM.. Reason: add more info |

The font on the Bezel insert isn't consistant goes from blocky to thin, the A on the dial looks pointy and slanted. And the Grandfather story again do these scammers all have the same grandfather?

Crown guard looks wrong and the silver surrounds on the markers are too thick imo. The LEC on the crystal seems to be too obvious to be true.
Not to mention to wokky rehaut and poor fitting of the SEL. Overall I'll say its a fake. |

I don't like the dial, bezel insert, or crown guards.

The bracelet coronet is the dead giveaway, even if the head is just "funny-looking."
