Tell us more about the source if you don't mind...ebay, seller on a forum?

BABKA · 4 August 2013, 03:54 AM

When I first laid eyes on one at a boutique, I thought it was something from the future. Congrats and ENJOY!

eBay seller ricks032003. He had the audacity to try and relist it as well. It had since been removed by eBay. After learning more about counterfeits and looking at eBay auctions I would suspect more than half are counterfeit. Unbelievable.

The trouble is is that these sellers / con-men lure unsuspecting people in by using genuine photos, but supply counterfeits ... The only way is to see the watch in person before any transfer of monies !

Yup. The photo's in his auction were not of the replica watch.

Sorry to hear this incident - a happy purchase for a beloved watch ends up this way but fortunate that you posted in here and a bright eyesight expert picked up the tell tale sign and alerted you to follow up the purchase immediately before your money is wired to the seller.

It is always a wise move to see the watch in real person before money transacted and I'm always hesitate to buy luxury stuff online. Always buy from a trusted seller or authorized retailer for the peace of mind unless you are a real expert in the field.

We do not discuss fakes on TRF besides pointing them out.
