There is only one photo remaining on eBay, and every detail in that photo is simply "wrong" -- printing is crude; top and bottom of the box do not align properly; color is off . . . it's all wrong.
The genuine boxes are very well made, and they have generally held up very well over the years. This one looks like a school art project, for an elementary school. The grade on this project might be a C-, at best.

: Hello Gianvittorio,
: Explain the differences?? I think there are way too much
: differences and the overall quality is very poor, only seen from
: the pictures. I'm convinced in real it is even worse. I think
: you have enough experience to decide thesame as me, or am I
: wrong?
: I only have heard from these boxes and now I see them available on
: eBay. For me it's 1000% sure, as fake as can be. Look at the
: details, the poor finishing inside, the plastic holder, too many
: things that we're not used to see from Heuer, even not at the
: end of their business before it went TAG Heuer. It's not that
: strange at all for me...with these boxes catching around 750
: euro easily lately for mint/nos examples...pretty easy earned
: money to make some fakes and get them sold as the real thing.
: Come on guys...what do you all think of this box?? Also it's very
: strange that the seller seemed to delete the pictures from the
: past auction...for me this says it all.
: I look forward to some more reactions,
: Cheers,
: Abel.
