Re: Does this Speedmaster look fake?

In Response To: Re: Does this Speedmaster look fake? ()

: I'm no expert, but when comparing the watch to
: the ones on the Omega website I noticed that
: the bezel on the real Omega says
: "Tachymetre Base 1000" but the one
: on ebay only says "Tachmetre".
: Also don't notice any sub minute markers on
: the ebay watch.

I would agree. The bezel is incorrect, Also, tachy fonts on the bezel are too large. The omega Symbol is too large and the placement of the text below extends to far down the face. The seller knows this and was cautious NOT to say it was a Omega, but "Says Omega". The bracelet also looks cheap and doesnt match up well with the case. The chronograph subdials are not spaced as they should be. Who else would sell a $4500 watch for $200 with a couple others to boot? I see he also has a fake Breitling for sale also.
