Found this on eBay a few days ago and am interested in bidding however the pictures are fairly crummy and Ive used up almost every resource I can find online including trolling the search function on this awesome site.

Herès the auction link below:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/300694361757?ss ... 1438.l2649

From my best abilities I question why the seconds hand for the chronograph has red paint on it; from all the others Iève seen for sale dont have that.

The watch is real. All the real versions I've seen have a red tip on the chrono sec hand. There is a fairly good copy of the Navi World but the date is sunken and it has the wrong font. The bezel is a little to thick on the fake version too.

If you don't see the red paint on it, then definitely question it, it's supposed to be there as already said.

Thanks for that link ade113; I never saw that post while using the search function. I've been pondering the purchase of a Navitimer for the past three months now.
I'm not to particular on which model I think they're all lovely. However I'm more educated on the Tag Heuer's but by using this site I was able to spot a different fake on eBay of a Navitimer Fighter's Special about 3 weeks ago. Reported him to eBay immediatly but the possible replica still sold for 3000$
