I normally like to stick my nose in here from time to time, but there are some pretty good SOH fakes...so, no comment. Buyer beware. Buy the seller, then the watch. |

Yeah you should watch out... according to the pros here the SOH copies are superb... seller first then watch... a better pic should be in order as well... |

same advice from me. buy the seller and the hopefully impeccable documentation, SOH replicas are frighteningly accurate. |

Thanks guys. How accurate/ spot- able is the paper work with the fakes? The seller tells me he has all boxes and papers. Do the fakes generally come with worked up boxes and papers? Greg |

Impossible to tell from that photo, need to see a shot of the back of the watch showing the crown area. Generally fake papers can be spotted, but don't rely on it. |

The old replica had the wrong date font but the new model is spot on. I have never seen fake papers other than a COSC certificate so if the warranty book s/n matches the watch, I would be satisfied. |

The "B" logo is marginally too far to the right (closer to the date window) but we're talking microns rather than mm! |

If the fakers made one that had it spelled correctly, what else would give it away? They made it that way on purpose. |
