From the first pic, you actually can see that the date window is white.... It is supposed to be black. Also, you can see that the 12'O clock indices are misaligned and makes the watch look really terrible. The Omega logo is also a little crooked. From the second pic, you can tell that the crown is too small and that the case back is wrong. It's a cheap $5 fake.
