Does this super avenger look legit? I have seen it for a good price and it has the A13370 and is quite detailed. I think it is legit but the number look odd. Also its quite heavy. Help please. ![]() |

The date looks worryingly sunken in the window. |

![]() Now I've given it a second look, the subdial markings and spacings are wrong for a Calibre 13 movement |

Not just a fake, it's a CHOS. |

a really bad fake, especially for a pretty easy watch to fake well. |

What are some of the things that stand out on making it look fake? |

On the first photo in the seconds subdial numbers 30 and 60 should be the same size as the other numbers (as well as 15 and 30 in min. sub and 6 and 12 in hour sub). Baton SA just the pearl and details (didn't spend much time staring at this model). Attached photo: poor displaced and too rounded lume. |

The subdial at 9 o'clock counts up to 7, on the real watch it goes to 60. The 6 o'clock subdial counts up to 24, on the real one it goes to 12. The 12 o'clock subdial goes up to 12 and on the real one it goes up to 30. The reason they are wrong is because this thing doesn't even have a chrono, but you can't tell that from photos. All you have to do is have a photo of the real and the fake side by side for about 2 seconds and you can see that it's not close. |
