I have had this watch for a few years now. I was just digging through some boxes and came across it. I was going to throw it away, as I really don't know much about watches. Don't even wear them. But I said, let me google it and see what comes up. Well, here I am on this site. I think it may be a fake from what I've read. The one thing that I read off the list is the printing on the bracelet. And the second note is the number marked on the back, I read this number has been a known fraud? Any help would be appreciated before I throw this thing away! Thanks!

Hands, subdials, date font, sunken date wheel, the fact that it has chronograph pushers but no chronograph, etc, etc, etc.

So everything, eh? Lol. Well, I guess my first instinct to throw it in the trash was correct! Thanks, guys!
