FAKE-73...Sub...seller: southernsail

....first, poor pic's of a $5K watch.

....second, band appears to be fake. Has the circle on the crown on the buckle. The band also does NOT appear to descend in thickness of the links. WHY does this $5K HOLES watch have a no holes band????

....looking at his FB, his only sale was a $250.00 BP gas card that sold for $255.00....how stupid can that buyer be????

Stan.

Err buddies...although Orchi concurs with buddy Stan...Orchi won't turn away from such a watch...

Orchi would run like faster than Carl Lewis...to stay away from it.

stan please elaborate on what you mean about the "no holes"in the band,it does not have solid center links-I can not say about the face because its not close enough to say for sure-but the rest appears fine to me.its an early 90's watch.he should have stated a little more info about the series and everything,but I do think it is authentic.IMO,but I could be wrong.

Err buddy Steve...what buddy Stan meant...was the fact that the case has holes...there's absolutely no need for the watch to have a bracelet with endlinks that is meant to fit a case without holes...

Unless the bracelet could be fake too...

I see what you are saying now,the indents that allow you to remove a springbar from a watch without holes in the case.yes that is strange.I did look at the bracelet pretty close though and it does appear that the links grow smaller as it descends-and the clasp seems alright-the hole in the bottom of the crown seems to match two I am looking at right now as well as the fingernail indent and the placement of the holes and track.if its fake,they got it right except for the end-links.

you know what is the strangest thing of all,I just ran a search of completed auctions of gift cards and have found multiple examples of people buying gift cards for more than face value...?what gives??is there something I am missing here??
maybe they are supposed to be for gifts to friends and family and its easier to spend an extra few dollars rather then actually go to the store??
