As a newbie, I'm curious what is wrong with teh watch. Forget the stock photo. Are the others too far away to confirm it's legit? Sure hte Kuwait thing could be a scam. Clearly either the deal fell thru (and he didn't get shipped out) or he has several.

I'm just trying to learn.

Thx

A fuzzy picture is a scam until proven otherwise. Having a fuzzy picture prevents picking out obvious flaws in the fakes. In this particular case, despite the intentional blurring of details, the subdials are obviously wrong on this Daytona, they are too wide. There is also some rule that you can't use somebody else's pictures without permission. Finally, it is deceptive to use a stock picture to illustrate what you are selling.

Bottom line, need flushing.

Thanks. I figured something was up with the fuzzy photos. I'm amazed so many people bid on Ebay without really knowing. Or do you think there are 1-2 shill bidders?

I see the subdials ARE wrong. I learn something new each day. How did I miss that the first time?? I was never good with them Find-It things in Highlights in the doctor's office as a kid. LOL
