:yeahthat

Definitely a real watch in the photo, but looks like a stock photo rather than one by the seller.

I know what you are saying and I thought the same, but if it was from a stock photo and the watch is not the same as the photo, then it goes back to Japan and I claim my money back from Paypal.
I can see smear marks on the glass and scratches on the back, so I thought this must be genuine and not a standard new watch photo.
Am i being really naive

Some of them are definitely 'real world' shots (of a real one), but some look stock, which makes me wonder why. May be nothing odd at all, I just prefer that all photos are clearly of the watch for sale.

Just make sure what you receive is the watch shown in the pics and you're fine.

You are reading one happy blokes Email.

The watch is exactly the same as the photos, looks even better in the flesh, also checked with :lingsrock: head office serial no etc.
Although I got the watch for about £1k under dealer prices, had to pay €450 to the French goverment for VAT etc, money grabbing gits

Such a happy little soldier.

Thanks for all the input guys, this site is brilliant, keep finding them fakes,
