Looks genuine but there are some rogue loom plots floating around that dial

Matt is referring to the floater at 8 o'clock?

'Styrofoam'? It's a lume plot that's broken off from 4 o clock.

Just a question. Is this watch the same model as this one i found at bobswatches (item nr 108596) because here the lume plot seem completely different??
Does this mean its fake or? As I am meeting the cellar in a few hours |

The watch looks fine (genuine), but I would personally pass on it for the following reasons (unless it was an exceptionally good deal): 1. As noted above, one of the lume plots has broken off of the dial. This is not unheard of, but it will need to be remedied (removed), and the affected hour marker re-lumed. If done correctly/professionally, it shouldn't be an issue or noticeable afterwards. Still, not ideal. 2. The service warranty card has the serial number omitted. This is likely due to the case being severely worn over time by an ill-fitting bracelet, which has completely obliterated the serial number between the lugs. Unless the seller has other supporting documents, there really is nothing proving that warranty card even belongs to that watch. Just my $.02. YMMV! |

It looks like there is another one broken off and floating just above the date window too.
