Hey , just found it on ebay... drew my attention as listed from China. Description says original.... I am no expert , so please free to say its the real thing , but to me the bezel letters just dont seem right and the writing at 6 , normally says SWISS MADE , not SWISS <25 or something

Is this another fake ? No intention of buying it , but thought it might be useful to post here

As old as the watch is, unless it lived on a NATO band ............... Which reminds me ............... I discovered that there was a lot of my ex wife that wasn't original

on second thoughts the clasp could be original. Older Explorer IIs used the 78360 bracelet with this type of clasp.
