Ebay has been removing fakes at a blinding rate the last two days. So lets try to get rid of this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 942wt_1130

It has all the telltales of the fake:

- Luminous markers on the chapter ring are poorly applied,
- Crown logo is wrong (loop of the B does not descend properly),
- Shape of digits on bezel is wrong (radius of corners, especially internal, too large),
- Known serial number in range for fake of this model, 1342xxx
- no supporting paperwork
