What do you think of this one? I have a bad feeling about it. The length of the 44th and 46th sec marks look inconsistent and date font looks too small?

Probably fake but too blurry for me to say for sure. I don't like the date font and I think it's missing the 11 tick on the 12:00 sub.

Looks like no AR either, but I can't be sure. bnewbie will doubtless spot it as fake from 1,000 yards.

Ive got no clue if the picture is of a real or a fake, but I wouldnt touch that auction with a ten foot pole.

No doubt. :D

I think you're right BR, I've enlarged the pic and I am pretty sure that the 11th min on the minute sub dial is missing. The 46th sec tick on the main dial looks long which is a common fault on Evo fakes. Also, the rider tabs don't seem to taper properly.

:yeahthat No genuine gold Evo should sell for that price, unless there's something very wrong with it. Also, the fact he's telling us we don't need a battery for the watch is another big red flag for me. The seller is clearly not catering to buyers who know watches, and he probably doesn't know much himself, either. This increases the chances he can't spot a fake himself, or assumes his buyers can't.

Reported. I love this quote from the seller:

"Non counterfeit or non-authentic watch"

That pretty much covers every watch on eBay
