Hi All, I'm new here and new to watches in general. Please let me know if I'm posting correctly and in alignment with the rules. I've done a couple days of research and could really use your feedback and expertise on the watch below, is the watch real or fake? Things I'd appreciate your help on: 1. Reference Number 2. Inventory Number 3. Movement Authenticity (stamp?) 4. Anything else that catches your eye Thank you in advance! |
