And unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) there is likely no incentive to do a better job on the dials because as WatchFred says someone will buy them.

I really think that people who do this serial faking on eBay should have the number of removed items shown on their feedback. eBay is getting better at removing vintage pieces but there still seems to be no comeback on the sellers, especially if they have high feedback so they just keep relisting them.

I'll report these in the hope of getting them removed, but they'll doubtless just come back.

you never know ....

I think I saw one of these pieces listed in Italy, no takers there.

The "Heuer" case could have gone on a Co-Pilot AVI 765 fake, so we´re actually lucky.
