Too funny. It's not really my style. And I don’t live in Australia, so I’ll have to pass and take your word for it. I have the new 300M Pro. If there were a 007 that I liked it would be the one in question; because its 007 related features are more to my taste. Not saying the new one is not tasteful: it’s just not me. It (the newest 007 limited ed.) has a lot of idiosyncratic features that don't appeal to me. Like the little 007 gun icon attached to, and thus rotating with, the base of the second hand.

The swirl on the face is a nice touch,, but I think the references is too obscure for all but long time Bond fans to “get.” In any case, faking one certainly isn’t worth going to the slam for. Nothing I can do, other than notify eBay, about this one. If this were a U.S. only auction he'd be talking to a Postal Inspector Tuesday AM. My fiends to the south are not likely to ignore such a flagrant fraud as you've attested to here.
