Fake audemars piguet on ebay
Hi all
This is a terrible fake that I have reported TWICE to eBay, but it's still there! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Audemars-Pigue...1%7C240%3A1318

...please tell us...
...why you say it's fake.
...Tony, I for one, know NOTHING about this brand. ...is it possible to put up a pic of a couple of "genuine" like this one, for us novices?? Thanks, Stan. |

I am not a AP expert but I do happen to own a blue face non-chrono.
On my AP the caseback says "Royal Oak" which is this series. Also, I thought the hour markers should be white (not lime green) on the white faced dials. But I may be completely wrong. ps- Here is a photo courtesy of George W. Bush --> http://blog.breitlingsource.com/wp-c...07/09/gwb2.jpg Last edited by onkyo; 20 February 2009 at 01:58 AM..

Here's a link to a real one (albeit overpriced!! ) http://www.watches.co.uk/watch.php?wid=7728S Note how on the fake eBay one, the screws on the caseback are engraved & not real 18K white gold screws. The fake on eBay is just a dog all round. I have reported it about five times to eBay & it's still there!! Some schmuck is going to get horribly ripped off.

...the AP that is listed on eBay UK...
...appears to have FAKE screws on the case back-either painted on or lightly etched.
...what a SCAM. ...I don't think LADY CASPER would care much for this. Stan. |
