Thanks John, the watch in the picture does look authentic, but the seller's description says that it's an automatic, either that the picture isn't of the real item, or the seller doesn't know what he's talking about.
By the way, you're right, there are really "good" fakes out there on the same site: ioffer.com
My favorite replica is the limited James Bond 40th Annie located here: http://www.ioffer.com/i/Omega-Seamaster-007-40th-Top-Eta-version-7618813
The cowards even copied a real serial number onto the case back!!!!
The link goes to another "excellent" fake...
With so many "impostors" out there doing very good jobs copying Omega (serial numbers and even antimagnetic backs) I can't help wondering what's happening (did Omega really get bought by the Japanese like "Wolverine" said?).
However, the real Omegas don't use a cheap bottom line ETA 2824-2 movement (thanks to all for answering) like these do.
