Not saying that I would bid on it . Besides YM booklet that is rather strange the pictures are that crappy that one can't really tell . This may exactly be what the seller wants , but on what basis do you want us to report that to Ebay ?

Hi guys i travelled 60 mile to view the watch as it was nearly on my doorstep, the guy gave some excuse that he knew nothing about watches and he had taken it in PX against a car so he just wanted his money back, i had the watch in my hand and it is a superb fake, but just to hold it didnt feel right, the winder was not firm enough, the inside clasp of the bracelet was slightly rough with the wrong code, the weight was 142 gram yes i weighd it, it was to light, the hologram on the glass wrong, i could go on but the guy said he would take £2500.00 cash with no come back, i told him i would think about it, FAKE, IVE DONE MY JOB WARNING YOU GUYS, I reported it to ebay, so now its in the hands of the gods...

...very POOR listing...time for the TIN BIN...

...NO proof of authenticity.

...4 poor photos.

...NO reference numbers.

...cannot tell if this is a Timex, Seiko, or Rolex.

...etc.

Ok, That is a different story all together .
The inside of a Deepsea clasp is rough , the laser etched crown in the glass takes some finding . 142 grammes is indeed way to light , a Deepsea depending the amount of links fitted is around 210 grammes .
Willing to take only that is dodgy enough .
Now , again how do you want us to report that to Ebay ?

I would never buy a watch from a person that can't write properly. The Yacht Master booklet in one of the photos kind of tells the tale.

Does it really cost 40 Euro to ship something First Class Mail?
