Yet another PeeBay special

Lets play another round of "Catch-that-fake."
The funniest part of this listing is that the seller doesn't really want to show the face. Why might that be??

It looks like it may be a real GMT, but it's obviously a not very bright seller.

It's really hard to tell, but some of the things I look for in these exercises look okay.

I, of course, could be wrong.

Is that a fake? It looks real to me. If it's a fake I would totally fall for it. Pictures are shit though, I would like to see more.

I can't say everything is authentic as bad pics, but nothing looks fake either

I know, a damn good exercise.
The band certainly looks legit. But the rehaut looks too tall (what little we get to see of the face).
The line of "buy the seller, not the watch" would make this a hard sell.
Cheers.
