Hi everyone,

It's not fake but it's also not a factory direct watch. He put a real PP pocket watch movement into a generic case. He doesn't really say where the dial and hands came from.

Fake case therefore not worth more than a movement.

careful with branded vintage watches from Eastern Europe- particularly Ukraine
A lot of recased watches, and also clone movements with fake (Omega/Rolex etc) engravings on movements |

The ad says that the dial is new, but the dial has PP printed on it. My conclusion is that the dial is counterfeit. Should be enough to get it removed.

The only thing genuine on this watch appears to be the movement. Frankenwatch.
