Vintage (1966) GMT on the bay. Fake?
The position of the lug holes seems wrong to me.
Anyone know this dealer? Cheers! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=350004250569 |

Just the fact that he attached a hang tag that is clearly not from 1966 would be reason enough for me to pass on it.

I don't know this dealer, but watch is genuine. Appears to have RSC papers as well new bracelet and case back is correctly dated.

Looks genuine to me. The red on the 24 hour hand looks far too vivid but this may well be the camera or colour settings used on his paint package.

Thanks guys.
Love it, very much indeed, but it's out of my budget. Do these things tend to get cheaper after Christmas? |
