I inherited this watch from my Dad and put it on ebay and they said that I needed to get it authenticated. I just want to know if it is real, I was not trying to deceive anybody just thought it was real. Would love to find out and see why it is or is not. Thanks for the help.

Okay, thank you very much. What makes it a fake? Just trying to learn. Tried doing my own research but it all confused me a little bit. Thanks again for the sure answer.

your watch has pushers, but weekday and 24h subdials, where are the chrono subdials ?

Okay, thank you so much, that is very clear now, should have noticed that, I was trying to look at the small stuff and missed the pretty easy stuff.

:welcome:

As Fred has said, it's a cheap fake with a faux chronograph replaced by a day of the week movement.
