Fake GS Snowflake...

no idea fakes of the GS existed... but I do admire the zero feedback balls for hoping someone will send $4700 down to Mexico for this....

Listing removed. Very interesting. Curious how old that thing was purported to be. Can't say I've seen one before.

What's the giveaway? The ill-fitting endlinks?

Well that can happened if you a spring bar with the wrong middle diameter and the endlinks aren;t snugging up to the case. Doesn't mean it is fake.

Now there are other issues like the beadblasted looking finish on the watch, dial looks dull than the original one, date wheel looks off, etc.
