pics are too small to tell ... seller has good rating but that doesn't mean jack... looks legit but the best thing is to either to ask for high resolution cloesups and you post them here or see it in person ...best option is to see it yourself and take it to the place of purchase if you can ...

Tough question to answer! Even if the numbers are genuine (i donot think you should post them publicly anyway) just make sure the person who deals the watch is a reliable source.

Agree with the above. It's difficult to tell. The seller has a good reputation, but that may have been selling insignificant items. Why is he turning around so quickly... Did he get stuck with a fake? Probably not, but you never know.

Ask lots of questions of the seller. Get a phone number so you can give him a call and talk to him. If he resists, look elsewhere.

Bottom line, you can never be certain in a situation like this, but do you best to try and protect yourself. Be very diligent. This isn't the only one out there, so shop around if there are any doubts.

Thx all for your quick answer.

the watch appears genuine,although the pictures are rather small I did zoom in on them and just before they pixeled out it still looked pretty good.
judging from the watch and his feedback I would say you have a pretty good chance of
getting a great deal on a genuine watch.
good luck and let us know what happens.

I answered on your other post. I think the watch is real and everything looks complete with the package. Nicely priced so far.

As a first act on the forum, I asked the seller to post some close-ups of the dial crown and back. That should help. I've had mine for 23 years, great watch. Good luck with the bid.
