Re: Fake Seamaster?
In Response To: Fake Seamaster? *LINK* ()

Be careful.

From "part of a personal watch dealer's collection" yet doesn't have box and papers. (Most dealers know the value of having the complete set, and would keep it together)

Also, how old is it "New 373 cell." (Why has the battery been changed, who changed it, is the caseback still watertight?)

Finally, not one, but ALL the pictures are fuzzy. You would think that someone selling an expensive watch would try harder to make the pictures look better, especially since they advertise it as "like NEW". Wouldn't YOU want it to look "like new" in the pictures??

Just my three cents worth!
