The Center Scroll Section looks Kinda "Fat" and Horizontally Compressed. I think the Coronet is sitting too low as well. I don't see "Patented" on any of mine, maybe mine are too new?

No idea, what this means?
Is it really fake? I think only the likes of David would convince me.

Did you guys report it? If not why not?

Not reported by me

Just generically copied the blurb.

I know little about bracelets but the post about the 'O' is interesting.

No complaint made to the bay so no harm done.

If some one else 'stuck their head in an oven' you would follow.

You two really have no idea and are in my opinion dangerous.

I fail to see how I am "dangerous" if I do not report what I do not know for certain is fake.

I am here learning, just like others. Isn't the exchange of info and learning supposed to be a GOOD thing? Isn't RESTRAINT a smart thing under circumstances of uncertainty?

If you have any sort of extreme problem with me, I would be happy to disappear so as to not continue to be an irritant to you.

Thanks David
I was not actually questioning, Norm (time) although I got no idea what his GIF meant.
I am concerned people agreeing and cheering things who have no idea!

My thoughts are if your not sure, save the photos cut and paste the description, ask for opinions, do not put up the ebay link and shame the seller until your sure it’s fake cheers
