Ebay shoppers.... Be Careful!!!! *PICS*

This cannot be understated. I was surfing ebay and in less than an hour, I found and reported around 10 fakes!!!! A couple of them were horrible (like as in a black Bond 007 "limited ed.") and several were selling for around $1000 or more... :-( It's good to save people their money, but I just can't imagine the amounts of expensive fakes being bought [I'm not monitoring ebay 24/7 :-(]. Too bad....

Here are several pics:

This one is going for $700.....

This is one of the better fakes, but several things do give it away.....

He value misplaced and number '4' on date is wrong.... This watch even came with box and papers!

To make things a little less gloomy, I'll post a rare one (that's authentic to my limited knowledge regarding vintages...) They call it "Big Blue!"

Again... Be careful!
