Patek fake?
Please take a look at the pictures and let me know what you folks think. I've never seen a red second hand. All I know from the seller is that it is re-cased, originally a pocket watch. Bad fake or frankenwatch?

they just take pocket watch movements and put them in aftermarket cases, yes its a frankenwatch but it's not fake.

I'm not convinced that the movement is an authentic Patek Philippe one but the watch is, at best, a frankenwatch with, most probably, new hands. I would definitely forget about it.
