Help with a ScubaPro
I found an apparent Seiko Turtle ScubaPro. Not sure if its authentic. The store is asking $1,100. Not sure about the market price for this and in looking online, I am concerned that it may be a fake. Any of you experts who can weigh in on these photos and let me know if you think its legit? Also would love to hear if the pricing is in-line with the market ...

I'm certainly not an expert but that looks like a 6309 dial. If I'm not mistaken all the original Sucbapro 450's were 6306's.
Does it hack? Randy |

Unfortunately it doesn’t look legit to me. One of the first things to note is that on a genuine, the scubapro450 is a light blue color. There are a couple other ways to tell but you would need better picture of the dial font, especially in the lower part of the dial. Here is a picture of mine to compare. On a genuine one, you’d probably be looking easily $2000+ .

Many thanks for the feedback. The ScubaPro font is more white than blue. I’m gonna pass on this.
