ebay fake deepsea

i am sure this is one of those good fakes. no box and papers. the helium escape valve should be a darker shade and not shiny... plus the sellers feedback sucks!

The helium escape valve looks just fine. Deep Sea has a shiny escape valve, prior 4000ft Dwellers had a darker escape valve.

Nothing screams fake to my eyes.

Now... let me get this straight.

He wants to charge $80 dollars to ship a 99c watch, from one state to another?

Strange that it started with such from 99c, but still, he even agrees to local pickup and meet...

The watch in the pics looks OK to me. If that's the actual watch he has, that's another matter.

Hard to tell by these pictures , I wouldn't trust it .
However Deepsea escape valves are polished . They are greyish on the classic sea dweller .
