I'm not as sure as you are. But I admit that this model is a bit beyond my personal experience.

The dial is best reprinted
The case is fake
The band is fake
The crown is fake
The insert is fake
Only the movement is correct

Andreas, we know where this watch comes from.
Exactly the same model, same configuration...

Besides, who would be so stupid to sell such a rare watch on ebay at NO RESERVE!

In my line of work we say you can always tell when someone is creating/selling a story. This is because they tend to add more detail than would otherwise have been required to communicate were it to have been true.

Of course Im referring to "inherited from the father-in-law who was a Colonel in the US Army".

I just feel bad for the schmuck who will eventually buy what he is peddling (literally).

This is a very good example of another one of these fakes spotted by David today. Please see his thread "another fake submariner...".
This time the watch has not been aged artificially...and sold as a "project watch"...
