Watch out for these everyone

had a chance to take some quick pics of this bad boy the other day. feels and looks real until you look very very closely. one of the best fakes i've come across. this one is straight from the streets of hong kong. notice the 12 hour marker is slightly off center. i only noticed this after looking with a loupe. also, look at the lettering around the inner bezel that says "original gas escape valve" and "ring lock system". It is a bit smaller and less BOLD than the real version.

it's supposed to be a deepsea sea-dweller "M" serial

Also the S on Swiss Made should be inside the seconds tick marker it is outside of it.

Looks like trash, especially the gaps between the bracelet and the lugs. I'm sure it feels worse than it looks.

Yes, agreed it is a fake and it should be seen miles away.
First visible indicator, the date is not seen to be >2.5 times but in its original small font.
No need a loupe to identify other points to prove this is a fake.

Read the rules of this forum. Do not again post pics of such trash otherwise you will be shown the door. I'm still working to find a reason you should actually stay ....but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt....for now.

Not just looks like trash......it is trash.

I will refrain from commenting further, this isn't a 'fake critique forum'.
