Photos of the inner clasp please and crown, nothing sticks out as fake but the more photos the more sure everyone can be.

Should the lugs really be that short?

Seeing a few yachtmaster fakes like that

On older model it can the angle you take pics also makes it look worse

Not doubting crowncollection, but can you get a photo of between the lugs at 12.00 oclock?

Will try. From a private seller so not sure if they know how to take off the bracelet. I'll ask.

Me? I am unsure, but crowncollection, has a BIG edge on me.

Its mighty hard to decide with good photos, and in this case we have limited ones

looks ok

it looks exactly like the one my wife has in her collection. the head links do indeed stick out farther than the lugs on these models and the dial/bezel looks exactly like our genuine example. if the OP is seriously interested in the watch then simply get more pics between the lugs and sides-case back shots as well as close up bracelet clasp images but i don't see any red flags from the present set of pics aside from the bracelet and clasp loosing an argument with a buffing wheel and scotch brite pad.

Thanks for the info. I'm still considering the watch. Just trying to work out the right price
