Another fake Daytona on Ebay

This is the second fake-Daytona find on Ebay this morning. In this auction the sub-dials are too close together, bezel is not polished, proportions are out of whack, and has bogus green sticker on case back.

Reported. Even a n00b like me can tell at a glance that's awful. Looks like a Fischer Price My First Fake.

I informed the seller and this is what I got back: "Dear gray314,

I hope it's not fake. I bought it for $10,000 at a jewelry expo about a year ago.

Interesting that he typed it is a reference 116520 in his description below, but yet the attached sticker on the back of the case states 16233....leading me to believe he has at least done some research and likely knows he is selling a fake...

Hahhaa brilliant.
I'm new to the particulars of the spotting, but something is definitely off about it
