Suspect Platinum YM?
This just doesn't look right to me:
Seller - anaheimjewelry http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=310242255357 *Date/magnification looks off. *Bezel looks off. *Printing ("Swiss Made") on the dial looks off. |

The coronet on the flip-lock is pretty cheesy.

It does kind of look off but it is a 2006. Usually, those Anaheim guys or on the ball although I've not heard some not so nice things about their salespeople.

I dunno. The more I look at it, the more I think it's fake (or heavily modified with aftermarket parts).
#1. The dial is off. It looks matte as opposed to the correct "granulated" texture, and the "Swiss Made" text doesn't look right. #2. The date is off. The date wheel is not centered in the dial window (vertically or horizontally), and the magnification is way off. #3. The Bezel is off. The numbers look way too rounded. The numbers on the real bezel are flat. #4. The clasp is off. The coronet looks fake/cheap. The thumbnail shouldn't extend to the first crease in the clasp either. Also, the pic of the inner clasp is conveniently overexposed so the date code & bracelet number cannot be seen. Maybe just a really bad camera, but I'm still calling shenanigans! |
