I'm saying scam. The picture of the watch has lug holes in it. And if the watch is a little over a year old it wouldn't have those and be in that condition. I'm assuming one set of pics is from a non-date sub and the other is from a sub date.

Good catch. This one needs to go.

nice!

fusebuddy · 30 April 2009, 09:51 AM

Nice catch. Does anyone buy this crud? Does the fraudulent seller ship a fake watch or anything at all?

TimeToGo · 30 April 2009, 09:57 AM

The watch is not a fake but a copy of a legitimate seller's photo and/or a stock photo of a real watch.

Once they have your money....

fusebuddy · 30 April 2009, 10:04 AM

I understand the photo is a fake. Its awsome you guys are catching these duped/hijacked photos and calling them out.

I guess by the logo you have there, they take your money and don't ship. Nice... Are most of these bad guys from overseas, or are they USA?

It's a mixed bag

Welcome to this great forum.

Hi Steve,

First, sorry forgot to say Welcome to the Forum!!!

Sorry, yes the logo means....they wave bye to you.

Scammers can be anywhere, even lurking on this forum. I was had by one on TRF but this was totally my fault!

Thank you for the welcome! See my above comments, I love this place.

I see there are some regular sellers here that have earned a great reputation. I guess this is a great way to go if you don't wish to buy from an AD.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Keep up the good work, you're helping and educating anyone who sees your comments.

Hi Steve, can finally drag myself away from work for a 5 min break to say welcome :-)

definitely stick around, I too love this place, only been here a short time and feel like I could have a drink with the guys here any time! for Terry that would be a nice hot beverage, cappuccino preferably

Stan would be a hot toddy

the rest of the guys would be a brewski or two

the only issue I have with TRF, its damn too addictive, every opportunity I get I'm logging in, even considered disposing of the hp 6965 phone and getting an iPhone for fast browsing lol

Enjoy,

Chat soon,

Dave.
