Do you think this is Authentic?

Hi there

I am new to this forum and this is my first post. I am looking to purchase a Deepsea over the internet and I would pay with Paypal so I feel confident that if the watch is fake, I could get my money back. Do you think this looks authentic?

Thanks

This one looks good to me, but I would wait for further analysis.

At least a couple of those pictures seems to have had the right and bottom edges cropped off (i.e the subject appears to the right side for no apparent reason) - are you sure those are the seller's pictures?

the pics are cropped to remove the sellers info.

The seller was too shady so I walked away. Thanks for everyone's input. I will continue to look.

I'm not sure I understand. This is a GMT Master II and the OP posted a DSSD. Could you clarify?

If you use Google Chrome (might work in other browsers) you right click on the image and do "Search Google for this image" and then type in what it is and if someone has stolen the photo from someplace else you'll find it.

I've also used this to find multiple ads from a seller and every once in a while one of their ads will have a lower price so I offer them that.

There is also Tin Eye:

Sometimes that works.

Anyway, just another tool in the box to try.
