Anniversary sub - please take a look
http://www.ebay.com/itm/50th-Anniver...item1c3a5684e1
I saw this and thought something was not right. Look at the pic which contains the 'S' serial number; the number above that (the 'model' number) appears to be incorrect for an anniversary sub. Not sure if I'm correct on this so will the knowledgable chime in? Thanks in advance |

Yes you are absolutely correct, that model number 16713 is a steel and gold gmt master. Obviously this person is trying to pull a fast one! That sub is definitely fake.
Correct model number is 16610lv. Looks like he bought a used authentic certificate (lots on ebay) only to make it seem more legit, case is also fake. Good eye though for noticing that!!
