Even in those pictures it appears to have the full size tic mark on the right side of the 6 o'clock position, so I think that one is going to be real. Better pics never hurt though.

What are the fake Blackbird tells (besides date font)?

Post subject:  Re: Blackbird
The two main checks are the date window (The white border is slightly too wide relative to the BREITLING text) and the sec marks at the cardinals (ie. 1,14,16,29,31,44,46,59) should be long. Also, the rider tabs often tend to be pretty poor.

Here's a pic of the fake on Sharkmouth's page:

His bid could have been $50, $500, or $5,000... $50 is just the amount of the increment. Good luck next time! It will be worth the wait.
