I would be careful with anything from thailand, I just checked the sellers other listings I am no expert but the very low starting bids is a red flag for me personally.

The watch in the pictures is real. But as noted, buy the seller, then the watch

This is screaming SCAM...the seller has only sold 10 items, all which were relatively inexpensive. All feedback as a buyer were for super cheap stuff. All feedback is very recent..a few months. With this feedback, PayPal will now NOT hold their money like they would a new seller. Sellers out of the country do this. They spend a few bucks buying a bunch of cheap crap to get feedback, they sell a few cheaper items to get feedback as a seller, then they sell the high dollar items. Upon getting payment, they disappear, close the accounts, and you are screwed.

In this case, the seller now has about 30 watches worth at least 20 grand at MSRP in auction listings, all listed within a period of hours. Once these end and he gets payment, he's gonna run.

MAJOR SCAM WARNING!!!

Yes, it looks very fishy that a seller like this suddenly has dozens of high value watches for sale

On the photos is genuine Chronomat Vitesse.
It's around 40mm, not 44mm.

Thank you all for your advice. I am glad to learn all the red flag. If the world was less complicated....
